BURLINGTON, ON

 

On Sunday, I had the opportunity to visit the Royal Botanical Gardens Arboretum (RBG).

Sakura Cherry blossoms at RBG

The Sakura Cherry blossoms are beautiful and a short walk from the parking lot.

Parking is limited, but you don’t need to reserve in advance yet. Once the lilacs are out, reserved parking will be required.

Turtles are out.

For the more adventurous, the turtles were out catching some rays.

The Daffodils are out.

The Juncos are nesting near Raspberry House.

They gather beneath the  Sakura Cherry blossom trees at Spencer Smith Park – a gift from Japan many years ago.
