A touch of spring

I've been waiting for them for a while now: the first signs of spring. And finally, here they are.

Here's from me to all of you who are looking forward to spring! Spotted yesterday in my mother's garden.


Crocuses



Narcissi



Snowdrops

Any sign of them yet in your garden ?

We definitely have a few bulbs peeping through here and there, which is encouraging. Unfortunatley the forecast is for colder weather and possibly more snow again this coming week.

I'm dying for a little spring. It started to feel warmish at the end of the week, but Météo France says we're getting cold again this week!

A sure sign that spring is coming.

While you have those little signs of life in the garden, ours is dying off with 30+ degree days and very little rain.
Spring is the best part of the year.

The American Indians were the smart ones. In winter, they would go South. Back in the North in spring. I don't like cold weather, don't like it when it gets dark at 5 pm. Vive le printemps!

Due to heavy snow, spring has been cancelled!

Jean & Dedene, Same here. They're talking about more snow on Wednesday. Yuk!


Nadege, I don't like the cold either and I hate winter. I should have lived with the Indians!


Leon & Sue, Spring is my favourite season too. I like it even better than summer. But maybe that's because I was born in April?!


Chm, Did you get that from a reliable source?
