Crocuses, the little beauty. by ladymagpie

Crocuses, the little beauty.

Well we are well off Spring, yet the next flower to show it's head is the pretty Crocus. Even though we have had these terrible storms and torrential rain, here on the hillside of the Cotswolds the flowers are starting to breaking through.

I must look down in the valley where the floods are to see if the plants are acting differently, perhaps I'm becoming a scientist, studying the global warming effect on South West England, Professor Magpie sounds OK.

Best viewed with the magnify button above the picture.

Professor Magpie is a grand title; I thought I saw some rape seed flowering yesterday I have to go back and find out for sure, I was in the car at the time.
Like the vein detail, delicate colour

So lovely. I'm very much looking forward to Spring, but we have a bit of a wait ahead of us. Snow is still featuring in our forecast, even though we are warm here today.

@khawbecker Thank you Karen much appreciated, we haven't had any snow yet which is unusual, so it's expected.
