This is, I think, my favourite time of year; the short period when the buds on the trees are just beginning to unfurl into leaves, and everywhere I look I see shades of light green infusing the landscape. This picture (taken last night on the mud flats) hardly does justice. (Aside: just to the left of this shot, there were two kids having sex in a field! I wondered if they knew about the fertility rites that took place at this time of year long ago in northern Europe. This being New Paltz, probably they did. I should have thanked them for ensuring good crops in the coming year.)

I read this earlier but didn't comment. I'm sure they would have appreciated the interruption...
No, no! After, I mean. They were finishing up about the time that I was leaving.
