Signs of Spring Post #2

I found another sign of spring today in the front yard. Narcissus is blooming! Narcissus is actually another term for wild daffodils. Remember the other day when I wished for some white ones? Well, these are white! YAY! I was surprised to see them blooming already. The ones in the field do not have any buds on them. So this was a nice little surprise indeed! I am hoping that Spring comes on in for us and will not do a big tease on us! I'm ready for blue skies, sunshine and some warm weather. It sure beats the cold! Are you ready for Spring?

Yes since Spring comes after a harsh winter and the weather is a lot warmer.

I am SOOO ready for spring! Your flowers sound beautiful. That blue bird I saw last week was our first sign of spring so far.

Yay, I'm glad you are seeing signs there too! I'm fixing to convert one of these old satellite dishes into a bird bath and another one into a feeder if the hubby will let two of them hang around!!

I think it is just great that these are coming up on their own. I wish they'd do that here.

@kareng Freesia bulbs are sometimes thrown out on rubbish heaps and then start coming up year after year.

They may get killed off! Let me know if they survive! I'm curious! However the snow here 2 weeks ago didn't affect these!

Yes, two whole days of thunderstorms for us next week. Not looking forward to those two days. And no sunshine all week.

That’s such a lovely little surprise! White narcissus blooming right after you wished for them, feels like nature heard you. Spring has a way of sneaking in with these little signs before fully settling in. Hopefully, it doesn’t tease too much and brings in those blue skies and warm days soon!

Right! We have a whole week of gray skies, cloudy weather and a couple of days with thunderstorms in the forecast. Then another freeze on Sunday night. So this whole week is a tease!!
