Spring is developing quickly now
Today the first crocus of the season is starting to bloom:
and the first Bumble bee of the new year made its appearance. (This was a “hip shot”: the Bumble was a very quick and very busy bee).
The first Draba verna is also blooming on a warm cliff just above the river.

One sunny day
During many cold nights and snowy, cloudy days these little Crocus waited for one sunny day.
