Plum flowers and a little bird

I adore plum flowers. I like them better than the sakura (cherry blossoms) actually. Maybe because of the fact that in the sakura time, the parks are over crowded and every blooming tree is surrounded by 23596 millons of photographing Japanese and tourists. The plum flowers on the other hand, they are left alone to bloom and be a sign of the soon to arrive spring. Here are som pictures from today. A green little bird is eating nectar from the flowers.
