Pretty Pink Flowers

A couple of weeks ago, trees began blooming with these beautiful pink flowers that somewhat resemble passionflowers.  I've never seen their like before.  Does anyone know what they are?  The trees are covered in them now and they're gorgeous.  I'll try to get a picture of one of the trees in full bloom this weekend.

Thanks Wendy! Y'all will have flowers soon. I'm about to lose them for the winter. We're planting pansies in the flower bed so we have some color...

From the distant photos, they look artificial, don't they? I do not know, but they remind me of some sort of hibiscus + clematis. The bird looks familiar, too, but don't know that either! No help here!
