Spring in Amsterdam

April3Image Credit: Click on Image

Dutch bulb farmers are renowned as the world’s tulip experts and the tulip fields in the Netherlands are an unforgettable sight in spring, with millions of blooms growing in every shade imaginable. Dutch tulips begin blooming in March with the early varieties and continue through late May but the tulip season hits its truly dazzling peak in mid to late April.

Linking up with a bunch of fantastic peeps from the blogosphere who host Wordless Wednesday – Betty, Steve, image-in-ing, Keith, Cathy, Sara, Esme Salon, CatSynth, and Suzana.

  19. Wing Commander Basil & The B Team – UK – Well, now there's a question! Furstly and most importantly I'm a cat if mew hadn't already guessed. I got my Wing Commander status in September 2018 but that hasn't slowed me up at all! I tweet, Instacat, FB, Tumble & Pin too and now there's Basil TV on YouTube. All in all I'm a thoroughly Modern Cat; a cat of the 21st century, mew might say. My human & Purrsonal Assistant aka P.A. is Cathrine Garnell, and she writes books including a tale about my fictional alter ego, Basil the Bionic Cat. [See Books Page] I live in a multi-cat household, and mew can meet the rest of The B Team here most days of the week, as they all like a turn on the blog. I like mice, but then don't we all? I also like fresh tuna, chicken and prawns. I LOVE catnip, not in any excess I might add before mew jump to any wild conclusions. Thanks so much for dropping by, as we The B Team, love making new furriends, so do leave us a comment and say hi.
    Wing Commander Basil & The B Team says:

    Happy Friyay Sandee, we made it just in time to join in the hop! MOL We hope yor weekend is blissfully epic and we adore the photo mew shared, it’s meautiful!
