A few warm days and sunshine and there they were, my first crocuses to bloom. We are going back to cold again tomorrow, but the birds singing and crocuses blooming are happy making. I think I post a photo of the first crocus every year, but why not?

Even though it hasn’t been feeling or looking like spring. I assume the birds know better.

A burst of sunshine behind a new African Violet leaf while it’s very cold outside. I hear there may be spring like temperatures next week.

My parlor palm is fruiting for the first time. Supposedly I could plant the fruits and have many palms. Once again, my houseplants like the fact that all the trees have been cut down, I do not.

It’s no secret that I’m a big fan of lichen. Here’s a variety on a bench.

The snow and ice are melting and some ground is visible. It’s lovely outside, green things are sprouting and I made my vaccination appointments this morning.

In the early part of our long duration snow event, the flakes were visible on dark objects. I’m not sure why there are so many shards instead of flakes.

In between the rainy day and the current snowy day, some interesting patterns of ice formed from the melting of previous snow events.

We had a mild and rainy day yesterday. A preview of things to come, but now we are back to cold with more snow on its way.

When the snow was coming down in large flakes, making hats on Rose of Sharon seedpods.
