A short walk near our house

Today is a nice day and considerably warmer than it has been recently. So, I grabbed my camera, and we took a very short walk near our house. Here are some pictures that I took along the way.

First, a beautiful orange flower. This one seems to be more common this year than in previous years. It is a very small flower, not even as big as this picture!

Here are some nice little blue flowers that we see occasionally but not too frequently.

Here's a different kind of blue flower.

We see plenty of these lovely yellow flowers.

Here's a nice ladybug that I spotted on a leaf. We see these from time to time here.

Here's a כלנית kalanit (anemone). These are VERY common all over this whole part of the country. With their intense red color, they are also very beautiful!

Here are a horse and a donkey in the newly fenced pasture quite close to our house. Isn't this a nice pose?
