Greenbelt Lake Daffodils, 3-13-13
Here's a pic I took yesterday of some daffodils beginning to bloom by the lake. I think the cold has put us a week behind schedule because I do believe the Bradford pears were blooming already at this time last year, and they still look reluctant to open. However, I really prefer the cold to a sudden heat wave that makes the flowers open and fade in a day. I am puzzled, though, by how brown the grass still is--more of it should be green already. I'm wondering if the warmer winters of the last few years have brought a new southern species of grass up here that is having trouble greening in these slightly cooler than average temps.

I've been trying to sight the PanStarrs comet this week, but either there's too much light around here, or I'm not getting a low enough clear view of where it's rising. I did see the beautiful stray cat tonight--the first time since last I mentioned hir. Apparently, Thursday is hir night to be seen.

Spring is coming! I caught two raccoons fighting over the feral cat food very early this morning.

I love Daffodils. It's always a sign that spring is coming around here. Unfortunately they never seem to stick around long enough before snow makes them fade away.

Maybe you can get a picture of her next time ;)

What a lovely spring vignette. I love the sweet colors of the daffodils against the gray and brown background.

Your seasons are ahead of me! I can still only see snowdrops and crocoii around here. No daffodowndillys yet. I like yours though. :-)

I shall not trust to hope. Spring has forsaken these lands.

I plan to work on my garden tomorrow, getting it ready for my veggies.

oh gosh, if only spring would come. It's supposed to be close to 60 today, but aside from that, it's been like 30 and windy and nasty and then it's supposed to drop down AGAIN and be cold all week. WHY didn't I plan my vacation better to go somewhere warm? Why?
