Signs of Spring

The pussy willow catkins are already out and looking beautiful against yesterday's perfect blue sky


Yesterday evening there was still just enough light for me to take this photo of the crocuses on Leith Links before going to teach an evening class at Leith Academy.

at the willow holt here, come may, and the catkins form a thick snow that settles on the ground like cobwebby snow! It's very eerie. Hard to run through as well!

__ Here, the crocuses are smiling at us; time to step out and scan for the Pussy-Willows. Ah, the seasons move on, nifty.

That was a perfect blue sky!

I love how the lights of the buildings show up in the background, and the crocuses light the foreground. How lovely!

Yipee! :-) Yes, spring's arriving. Slowly but arriving.

Greetings from London.

Jealous! Here in the Pacific NW it remains cold, flurries at sea level, avalanche danger in the mountain passes ...not a hint of spring! (Your pictures help!)

What a beautiful sky ... we had similar yesterday and enjoyed a glorious afternoon. It really felt as if Spring was here - but will it continue! We shall see.

Lovely to see the crocus too.

All the best Jan

Spring has unfurled here, and the azaleas are beautiful
