It's spring and even the wildlife are pairing up! I took this in my backyard, a morning dove couple. We have many bird species pass through and some that stay around, like the morning doves! It was a beautiful day today. The park was alive with people, passing time and celebrating! I hope you enjoy... be well! Tj.
A mile from the State Capitol, Historic Old Sacramento,The Golden 1 Center, home of the Kings, and Raley field, home of the River Cats! Blocks from multiple churches and the oldest Mosque West of the Rockies. Our park hosts dozens of music and cultural festivals, has a beautiful pond, and much wildlife. Tennis and basketball courts, a swimming pool, and wonderful accessible playground complete with spaceship! Muses and ramblings, about the place I call home. Southside Park, Sacramento CA

The beauty and diversity of Southside Park! The Aztec Celebration of Tlacaxipehualiztli (The Flaying of Man), a springtime festival in honor of Xipe Totec. Xipe Totec, the god of Spring and new vegetation. Beautiful head dresses, powerful drumming, inspiring dance... Wonderful! And spring is here! At the pond while the drums were pulsing and the conch shell singing a Great Blue heron came in for a landing at the pond! What a celebration for the senses it was today!! Happy Spring! Tj.

Spring is really springing! Southside park is one of the only neighborhoods I've lived in that I have noticed these little yellow clover flowers in the spring.

They are the sunniest yellow color. Just beautiful, and for me one of the first signs spring is almost here! Until next time… Tj.
