The Lilacs Are Blooming.

Lilacs, Spring 2011., a photo by Leenechan on Flickr.

We have a lilac hedge on the border of our yard that's probably been around since the 1950s. When it blooms in the spring the yard smells heavenly for about two weeks. They really are murder for my allergies, though!

Just so you know.

I will be photographing butterflies again this year.
