Flying into Spring Coloring Page

It’s officially the first day of spring, even though we’ve had spring-like weather for about a month now in South Texas. The trees are covered in new leaves, the oleanders are blooming, and everything is covered in a thin yellow haze of pollen. Bees and butterflies are returning to take advantage of the pollen.

Today’s freebie is Flying into Spring Coloring Page. 

Butterflies are such a great symbol of spring with their quiet beauty and their beautiful colors.

 

 

 

Spring is a time of renewal. Along with the bees and butterflies returning, many animals have their babies in the spring. Here are some adorable baby animals for you to crochet this spring.
