There are some crocus coming up by my front porch. They appeared during the pre-winter warm spell and hadn't budged since they first came up. Two days of warm has them moving again. The cold will be back on Thursday.
"Come on. Let's go for a walk." My little pride follows. Miss Collar is always in the rear so Button can't sneak up behind her and jump on her head.
I looked in a lot of the right places and did not see any crocus coming up. I am seeing more daffodils just breaking ground.
On a warm sunny day the snowdrops open their petals wide. I have seen a number of bees crawling inside.
When we arrived next door, Button and Miss Dinah promptly sat down. Lazy beasts! Miss Collar maintained her distance. I wandered around the garden looking at snowdrops and picking up sticks.
The trip back home was more problematic. Miss Dinah gets a bit scared when she loses sight of me and starts wailing. I have to keep calling until she finds me. Button waited in ambush and pounced on poor Miss Collar, his common tactic, as she followed behind. There was a mad chase through the forest, over limbs and logs and into the stream. She got away.
Now we can rest.

The kitties provide a lot of entertainment.
Yes they do.
I find animals to be excellent company. But not as good as snowdrops!
Bev they do keep me company and forever moving through a range of emotions, the cats, not the snowdrops.
My Ling Ling is a lot of company to me. She is so funny at times. Keep looking for my snowdrops but not yet. Even working in yard for last 2 days. Tomorrow is another 1. This warmth sure has put fire under me. Lol.
I have to get to work when it is warmer and not raining Lola. The cold will be back soon. The snowdrops are just the beginning. Thousands upon thousands more bulbs to go.
