Springtime in Cornwall

The daffodils are out in Pontsmill: they're still tight-furled in Sussex.
The silver marker-pen on my father's gravestone has lasted the winter, too. And rabbits have been nibbling on the sprouting bulbs. It's all very Natural.

I noticed the daffodils when I drove home from the airport today. They hadn't come up yet when I left last week.

I love spring. :)

ooh, are yours out already? I have snowdrops and crocusses, but these were my first daffodils In The Wild.

There are some at the lab and some next to Gatwick Airport, so daffodils are at least out and about around the North Downs. I haven't seen any around my house yet, but I didn't look too hard yesterday.

Funny that Gatwick has 'em and I don't! (Could have seen some for myself, if it hadn't been dark ...)
