First sign of spring

Magnolias starting to bud at Constitution Gardens, on the National Mall.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by PBase are decidedly
unsharp.

One among hundreds, posted earlier:

Nikon Z 7 ,Nikkor AF-S 300/4E PF ED VR with FTZ adapter
1/500s f/8.0 at 300.0mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

I can sense the anticipation on both your part and that of the magnolia.

A most welcome sight. Despite what Punteney Phil said, maybe there will be an early Spring.

A perfect focus and DOF. Very impressive clarity at 300mm and I like how you framed this composition. V+

Wow, that's early! I recall being in DC during a Super Bowl in '85. Very cold!

A lovely spring sighting the Pussy Willows are better than the ground hogs for spring prediction.
Sharp shot with a great background.
