Another Silly Video by Susan Kirby. Feeling stressed? This video is designed to have a calming influence. It features spring flowerings in New York City, and celebrates the flowers that welcome spring. Tulips, magnolias, daffodils, azaleas, fritillary, peach blossoms, cherry blossoms and other flowers that bloom in the spring, tra la!

And speaking of the New York Botanical Garden in the Bronx (and we were just speaking of it!), check out An Afternoon in the Gardens, which has flowers (of course), but also lots of birds and chipmunks.

Another Silly Video by Susan Kirby. Filmed March 31, 2016, in the New York Botanical Garden in the Bronx. Starring lots of flowers (tulips, daffodils, magnolias, azaleas, etc., etc.), trees (shagbark hickory, tulip tree), birds (grackles, sparrows, robins, wood ducks, mallards, etc.), and other wildlife (squirrels, chipmunks, chipmunks and more chipmunks).

There is now a page dedicated to the New York Botanical Garden, with lots of photos from that magical place.
