The Daffodils Begin

The warm continues with passing systems producing generous rains every few days. The daffodils are in full on bolt.














The deer ate every last crocus on the Great Lawn. A giant flower show was obliterated in the night. It is most annoying.














Daffodils are poisonous thank you very much.














There are some crocus left right beside the house.














The Trout Lily have started blooming too. They are spreading at an exponential rate and could become groundcover like in a few more years.














This is unusual for the first day of March. Normally I would expect just the foliage to be up and showing by the middle of the month.














I may see daffodils bloom this year that quite regularly get zapped by a winter storm. That is not out of the question at this point for sure, but for now it is more warm days out to the horizon. The daffodils are going for it.














In the land where the waters will carry me away.

Ooo, I get so annoyed when critters eat up any of my flowers! But daffodils just laugh at those pests. Mine just started blooming, quite early.
