promise of spring

[earwigmc]

in the past few weeks i have noticed from my window the promise of spring outside. the robin(s) seems bolder and brighter; the blue tits have returned/are more present/active; the snowdrops are flowering; and there's plenty green stuff pushing through. that and the sunshine *beam* 'tis still very cold 'though, with a feeling at times that it could

We had bright, bright sunshine and snow earlier today, in N1 - it's hardly gone above 38º all day.

Snowdrops are great. Must go to Hampstead Heath to see if I can spot any before spring bursts upon us.

Spring, IMHO, is an outrageous flirt. One minute it's all crocuses and being able to feel the warmth of the sun through your shirt, the next it's snowing.

Usually I get all ecstatic when the daffodils start to come through, then downcast when a few days later they're covered in snow. But the last couple of years I've been wise to Spring and its tricksy ways, which has greatly improved my mood in February. *nods* Spring's playing hard-to-get at the moment, but is bound to give in eventually.
