New greens

There is sign of new life now on the Badam (Almond) tree near my house. After about two months (December and early January) of relentless leaf shedding, the green leaves are coming back finally. In January the Badam trees were looking totally barren with empty long branches. Now I can see them back sprouting with force, young and full of green, with the cold weather seeming to be going away slowly.
Nature's work is amazing. In October/November, the leaves were all maroon in color. During each season, it offers a beautiful treat for the eyes. The tree also offers a good shade for my car when parked outside my house. Squirrels, bats feast on the badams from this tree - but then they also spoil our balcony with the leftovers :-)
It feels so good seeing the sprouting of new green life.
