It's SkyWatch Friday time and I'm looking through lots of pink to the sky beyond.
This is my Japanese double-flowering cherry tree.
I wish there had been more sunshine to show off the flowers better.
Masses of pink flowers in little bouquets at the ends of each branch.
Blue skies and a few clouds are a perfect background for it!
In a week or so, I will have "pink snow" all over the ground as the petals fall.
It's isn't quite fully open yet, but very close.
A pink swag.
I had to lighten some of the photos too much to get the blossoms to show up better.

My duck duo came back and found the seeds I left for them and then wandered over to the neighbor's lawn. Hope they don't decide to nest under a bush there, because I don't think the neighbors would be real thrilled.

It's a beautiful time of year to look at the sky!

This has got to be one of the most beautiful trees on earth when it blooms like this Mary. Fantastic pics!!
That cherry tree is gorgeous...
Lovely blossom Mary.
I especially love the bottom two cherry blossom images.
Thanks everyone! I was having trouble getting good close-ups. Couldn't seem to get the light in the right place. Today we have sunshine and I may try again at a different time.
Mary: Thank you for visiting my Blog,
