Snowdrops

"The Snow-drop, Winter's timid child,
Awakes to life, bedew'd with tears."
-  Mary Robinson 


I was delighted to spot these snowdrops peeping out of the flowerbed in the garden today. I noticed that Mum had celandines in her garden beginning to show when I was there yesterday. The lengthening days aren't being felt yet and I suppose the odd changes we are having between cold and warm weather will be confusing the plants but nonetheless......spring is on the way :)
