We waited a long time for the lovely Cherry Blossoms to appear and they did not disappoint us. But now it is time to say goodbye. Their beauty is fading but we will not forget.
Sayonara sweet Sakura.

The Jesus Tree, Revisited
You may remember my Good Friday post from April 2010 about the Jesus Tree in Wooster Square. Click here to have a look. Well to our collective dismay, one morning just one week before this year's Cherry Blossom Festival we all were out walking our dogs and the City of New Haven Public Works had cut off the right arm of the Jesus Tree. It's terrible. Really.

Robin in Cherry Trees
One morning I was out walking Milo my dog and looked up in the Cherry Trees and found this birds nest. The next morning I went out with my camera sans Milo and waited for the mother to appear. She was a chubby Robin Red Breast. She was busy on her nest and then she would fly off when she got startled. She looked at me a couple of times but stood her ground.

Easter
Then by noontime or so the sun came out as beautiful as it could be. An Easter miracle.

Wooster Square in the News!
What a coinky-dink, she looks a lot like me.
People come from all over to photograph Hughes Place and Wooster Square.
It's all about the sweet blossoms.
Yesterday on my way to Good Friday Services I was walking through Wooster Square when I ran into my friend and WTNH cameraman, Ken Melech. Next thing I know I was waxing poetically a lament for warmer weather and Cherry Blossoms. Thanks to my brother Richard for snapping these photographs of the newscast yesterday and to Ken for making me look good (I think). Of course, the Cherry Blossoms are the real stars here.
