Thanks, Chris. As Tina and Ric point out later, theirs are 30-40 ft in
the air. At that distance, they are hardly visible. This may be the
last year that I can reach them for a photo.

Both Ric Carter and Tina have mentioned the blooms of the Tulip Poplar
tree recently, so, having two such trees, I went out to see what I could
find. The smaller tree had none, but the larger tree has more than in
previous years, so I assume that they bloom more as they get older.
Compared to Magnolia blooms, they are much smaller and harder to see,
but the pastels are quite pretty.

Those are gorgeous flowers. I've never seen any before.
