Tulip Time At Last

These are the low growing early species tulips. The taller showier ones will come later. I can't tell you how glad I am to finally see them. I put my elbow in an ant hill while I was photographing them from an unflattering position. I wait until the neighbours have left for work so that I seem slightly less eccentric. I hope. However my wild ant removal dance probably put paid to that.

The new pup has certainly meant an end to the easy routine we'd gotten into here...
