Ghost, angel or faerie?
This is a picture from a few years ago, during a snow flurry. In the bottom of the garden, there seems to be a small flying creature. Maybe a faerie? An angel? or a ghost?
Princess Haiku had a post a while back about a ghostly image, and invited her readers to share any ghostly pictures.
I have another ghostly pic on my art blog as well.

Flowering Trees Create Fragrant, Bird-Friendly Habitat
By: Fast Growing Trees Nursery
Flowering trees can be much more than just a showy focal point. In fact, with just a little planning, your flowering trees can provide natural habitat for birds and create fragrant aromas for you to take pleasure in.
Select your flowering trees so that they fit into your landscape. Use them to screen objectionable views and provide privacy. Group trees by size and shape to create a dramatic effect, especially during springtime blooming.
Single trees, chosen for outstanding color and abundance of flowers, create eye-catching focal points in smaller yards. Plant them in center-stage locations clearly visible from indoors and the street.
Because of their nutritional value, the fruits of flowering trees also attract many species of birds year-round. For example, viburnum is a shrub that produces spring-ripening fruits. The berries of the flowering dogwood offer food in the fall. Other trees, such as crabapple, bear fruit that provides food all through the winter.
Finally, flowering trees offer aromatic foliage and bring memorable character to your garden. Use flowering trees in the places where they'll be most appreciated; such as along garden paths, in courtyards, or in seating areas.
Because of their stunning springtime blooms, the bird-friendly habitat they create, and their aromatic splendor, flowering trees will be the crown jewels of your home landscape.

Your picture isn't showing. I had the same problem yesterday and had to reload all six I had put on my blog. I think Blogger has a problem.
I'll check back. I'm interested to see what your picture shows.
I see it now. I vote for faerie
Looks very much like what a fairy would look like to me too. Do you have the rock with a hole all the way through? That is supposed to be one way to see the fae folk.

faerie most definitely--all the way from Mt. Errigal to your garden--
