I just thought you ought to know.
The sagebrush buttercups are here.
Snow, you scare no one no more. Not the prickly pears.
Not the moss.
Not the grass.
The sun is back.

I hope so. Pouring down here though. Was somewhat cold one without central heating.
Freeze, freeze thou bitter sky,
That does not bite so nigh
As benefits forgot:
Though thou the waters warp,
Thy sting is not so sharp
As a friend remembered not.

The clouds are closing in over the early sun here. The crack of the horizon has closed. I hope you can stay warm.

The first few are blooming here, too, north of Williams Lake along the Fraser River near Soda Creek! Despite the cold (-15 two nights ago) and continued spells of snow. There is heat in the daytime sun now; winter’s back is broken…

And in Wales the daffodils are blooming, every night I see frogs are making their way to the ponds and the early lambs are suckling at their mothers’ teat in the paddocks.

That is good news! I wish I was there for lambs and daffodils!

Here in the Sonoran Desert (where summer spends the winter, according to the local chamber of commerce) brittlebush, desert marigold, creosote and bougainvillea are filling the days with gorgeous colour. Ocotillo, not so much, but it’s raining tonight so maybe with a little push they will. Poppies in a few places too. And the vultures are back .. a sure sign that spring is here!

Ah, very fine. I wish our vultures were back. I hope they’re back soon!
