An Early Spring

The first signs of Spring

I don't know if you can make it out from the picture on the left, or not; but the Wild Daffs have broken through the ground.

They normally flower in March, but a whole month later on Dartmoor, in April.


Looks like Spring will arrive early this Year.


In the picture to the right; Cultivated Daffs; almost to the point of flowering, at two hundred metres above sea level and on the third of January in the normally freezing ( at this time of year) UK.
