Spring happens

One week after Moscow new spring is at us. The weather was all right so I used the days off to spend them at the nature. You are welcome to find some pics.

The main destination of my trip was Kivach waterfall, one of the most scenic waterfalls on Suna river in southern Karelia. There are waterfalls bigger but this one is the most famous due to the poem of Gavriil Derzhavin who used to be the first governor of Olonia back in 1700th.





You see it's plenty of snow in the forest.










There ere quite few early flowers in our latitudes. Coltsfoot.



Mezereon.



Willows.
