The daffodils and forsythia are blooming and I spotted a crocus nearly open yesterday. These plants seem able to take the weather see-saw although a hard freeze would probably ruin the blooms.
Little teasers of spring right now then back to winter.
Another sign of the season is that there are a lot of skunks out and many are being hit on the highways. Since we're in the country, many are hit on the road on which we live. That makes for such a delightful perfume for several days!
But, the skunks and the early flowers signal that spring really isn't that far away. Here's hoping it's early this year!

The daffodils in my garden are so late this year ... I have maybe 5 in bloom out of 100s - they'll probably wait till we are back out in Fuerte (2 weeks time) and they'll bloom their little hearts out!!!
Daffs are David's favourite flower and I always have to buy bunches for the house and his 'office' because I'm not allowed to pick them from the garden!!
Spring looks like it has sprung at last for you Jan. Doesn't it make you feel so alive. Glad your feeling warmer over there.
BTW. thanks so much for your help on the black cat. Hugs.
