Mother of dragons

Full time spring. I woke up, and my little dragons were right there, waiting for me.

Another post in pictures.

Весна в разгаре!

Ещё один пост в картинках.

First big project, throwback in 2010

Before I tell you what my first big project was, I probably should say a few words about how I got into the Applied Ecology Youth Club, aka RÖNK.

Side project for winter and friends

As the snow slowly melts in the mountain valleys, teasing me with open patches of ground (which will need some maintenance and love as soon as the snow is gone for good and the temperatures stabilise above freezing...so at the end of March, approximately), I've decided to cheer myself up with a side photo-project for my friends' family product.

This interesting moment...

...When the first spring ambassadors are saffron crocuses (Crocus sativus), who one would probably associate with Northern Africa or Middle East, but not a shadowy garden in Innsbruck. I'm really exited to see them in bloom!

Garden Dwellers, Winter Time

Although we are having a thaw right now, I managed to make some close-ups of my neighbours last week, as promised. Birds of all kinds came to visit me while I was preparing for the exams (hence had little time to post anything, but one can always find a moment to drag a camera out, if something more interesting than studies is happening around ;)

So here they are, my flying neighbours! 

Winter playground

It has finally snowed all across Europe and now the plants in my garden are sleeping under a fluffy white blanket. The sitting-stumps and the grill-place in making look like puffy white islands in the sea of 30 cm-deep snow

Feliz Navidad!

I believe you were naughty and have already found your presents under the Christmas tree, not waiting for the morning :) 

This year my Christmas elf went for the 'neat and simple' decoration option, adding a little bit of forest touch to every present I've packed, and getting a tiny potted tree (pinus pinea) to be planted outside - forest, park or garden. I've also hand painted a Christmas ball, adding some moss and an LED candle light inside.

This post is not related to gardening, it's just a good-mood-let's have a bit fun post :)

Although, it does complement my smoothie-making hobby :) Cheers!

Данный пост не несёт никакой особой смысловой нагрузки - просто мем в картинках для поднятия настроения, заодно рецепт моего нового смузи :)

Advent Madness

I suppose a more appropriate name for it would be 'Christmas Madness' since it all starts in early November, right after Halloween (and actually some stores are preparing displays for Valentine's day already)... However, there's a bright side to it :) It's time for some floral creativity, more specifically - Advent wreath, or Adventskranz, how they call it in German.
