Snowdrop in my front garden . First flower of the year!

@littlemiao I’ve been in Baltimore for so long that I’ve started to forget how different the seasons are further north. Even in a year that hasn’t been thrown into total disarray by climate change, we’ve had flowers for weeks by now. Of course, having grown up in California, seasons still surprise me a little at all. It’s only in the past few years that I stopped getting freaked out when it rained in the summer.
@josh0 I think crocuses have been blooming for other people for at least a week depending on sunlight exposure. This year the winter has seemed quite long, which I guess is good because that is the way it is supposed to be here. Continuous snow cover for a longer period of time, etc. It has been so long since I lived somewhere without four distinct seasons.
Dominique@littlemiao where are you at?
