Is the spring coming?
Mr. Bowie turned to the sunlight and shook his grey head. And whispered to me “Winter is dead.”

Guess it is time to call the gardener…

Yay for spring!
Right!
Welcome on HoB, Tokoni. Thank you for following the blog. Much appreciated!
You’re welcome! Hope to see more of you.
What a lovely photo of you Mr Bowie. We continue to wait for Winter in Northern California, but alas, it illudes is another year
Thank you, Savvy! Don’t wait too long for that winter… Maybe spring is already in the air!
So glad spring has come for you! It’s still snowing here in New York state…. 😦 Ellie
Oh no…!! The horror… the horror… 😉
Here in Virginia we were coated with ice yesterday but today it is all melting in blazing sunlight. I think Mr. Bowie is right…
Well, we all know Mr. Bowie is a very wise cat…
Alas Mr. B knows… at least he’s not playing dead. 😀
Ha ha ha… this is funny! Actually, Mr. Bowie loved going for a walk with his harness on.
Sunshine! Nice! I’ve had cats play dead like that when I put a halter on them, but I’ve also had them go berserk, as well.
Mr. Bowie loved to go for a walk with a halter on. Feel free to check out an old post (in Dutch):

That is a beautifully composed photo of Mr. Bowie in the golden grass highlighted by sun!
Thank you, Lavinia. The wind was chilly but I enjoyed the sunshine too…
I MUCH prefer Mr. Bowie over the groundhog’s notification!
We all can believe in Mr. Bowie wisdom…
Eindelijk he!!! Vanmorgen was de eerste dag sinds lang dat het bijna licht was toen ik op het werk aankwam :-). Oohh, wat verlangen we toch naar de eerste keer dat het 16 graden is…
Maar amai die regen die hier na de middag is gevallen… Ik heb toch het gevoel dat we de goede richting aan ‘t gaan zijn. Binnenkort zit ik ‘s morgens buiten mijn krant te lezen… 🙂
Spring is so far from springing here in Mississippi that it isn’t even on the long view radar. Mr. Bowie is a lovely moggie.
Thank you, Karron. Please be patient, spring is probably just around the corner…
We’re being patient here in Virginia but no sign of Spring (or even tall brown grass!!!!)……….Mr. Bowie looks grand………as always.
Pam and Sam
Thank you, Pam and Sam. Mr. Bowie told me spring will arrive in Virginia very soon. Please be patient…
I like that photo! And yes we are waiting for spring make it come soon ~
Thank you, Marc-André! I’m already looking forward to having breakfast outside. Guess I got to patient…
Tell me about it. It’s especially cold this morning brrrr
Wow, one of your best shots, just beautiful. And the grass picks up the color of Mr. Bowie’s eyes…
Thank you, Julie. That spot is one of his favourite places in the garden.
I hope he’s right, cos we’re all tired of winter. That’s a wonderful picture!
Thank you! I can’t wait to have breakfast and read the newspaper outside… But I guess we have to be patient…
What a beautiful photo of Mr.Bowie. He gives us an idea of the sunshine and warmth in our near future.
I thought the video of the lazy cat delightful. It “made” my day.
Thank you, Ettel. We enjoyed the sunshine and wished it was summer…
That is such a great photo! that cat is just so handsome 😀
Thanks Julie! Mr. Bowie says “Meow!”, and I think he’s blushing… 😉
Blush away gorgeous kitty
Lovely photo of Mr.Bowie!💜
Thank you, Shrimp! Mr. Bowie says “Meow!”
*(trills)*
I am not waiting for the Virginia weather to decide, I am starting my garden indoors. In the meantime I will look at that lovely picture of Mr. Bowie and feel warm.
That is a very good idea, Angela. Spring will arrive very soon inside your house!
Glad you liked the picture! Mr. Bowie says “Meow!”
Hope Spring comes soon. Please visit us for a cat in the hat themed giveway.
Let’s hope spring will arrive very soon…
Cool photo, Herman. I’m glad that you and Bowie are feeling spring. It’s about time, right?
Thank you, Mary J.
Weatherman says 12° C next weekend… Hallelujah!!
I know! I saw about the same predicted temps for us. Might have to take Friday off and go sit outside in the sun all day. 🙂
Good idea… Go for it girl!
Mr Bowie…are there any mice stirring in that tall grass?!
Don’t think so… but there are chocolate mice in my kitchen! 😉
Mr.Bowie is truly enjoying his spring sunshine. Here in Southern California it had snow at the beach!!! Yes. At night Moshu is snuggling under my 4 layers of blankets and purring so loud that I can’t sleep. Oh well, it’s always most important that the Cat is happy
What…?? Snow at the beach!?! That’s a nightmare… Thank goodness the cat is happy… A happy cat = a happy human! 🙂
I hope Mr. Bowie is right! I am so done with winter this year!
I think we’re heading in the right direction, well, in this part of the world…
Oh, Mr. Bowie, I pray that you are right.
Let’s hope so…
Glad to see Spring coming somewhere, Mr. Bowie. Here in NW Arkansas, we’ve got snow on the ground and more coming tomorrow. I know — you don’t want to hear it. Bring out the espresso and cat treats! ♥
Oh yes… Espresso, cat treats and maybe dark chocolate, now we’re talking!
The snow has melted now and Spring is on the way. Pretty soon “they” say that these stark winter woods will burst forth in greeny leaf. Sure doesn’t look like that today. I’ll wait for the surprise. Peace, Alia
And here the Autumn is in the air!
You should move to the other side of the world… 😉
Oh, that’s such a charming portrait 🙂
Thank you, Sarah. Mr. Bowie says “Meow!”
Luna and Juno send lots of purrs 🙂
Thank you so much, my friends! I can see a smile on Mr. Bowie’s face…
😀
Weeds are flowers too, once you get to know them. A. A. Milne
No need for a gardener, It’s an excellent hide out for Mr Bowie. Plus they match his eyes 😀 Nice shot Herman! x B
Thank you, Boomdee.
I will tell the gardener to stay away from that hide out, Mr. Bowie will be pleased…
Spring can’t come soon enough this year. Normally I don’t long for it as I like winter but this one has been a particularly bitter one for more than one reason. Unseasonably cold, terribly cold. Many animals and even people have died because of it and we have been under extreme cold warnings every week even here in Windsor, which was unheard of. Of course, if I were in Ottawa, Spring wouldn’t show her face for at least another month. But then again, if I were in Ottawa, Satchie wouldn’t be missing. Please give Mr. Bowie a big hug and a kiss for me.
