The First Daffodils

I've seen quite a few daffodils further afield where spring arrives a little earlier but these are the first in our garden. I've been keeping a close eye on them and decided that today was the day for that first photo. There will be many more I'm sure


I've got a little bit behind because I've been quite busy. I shall enjoy looking at all your photos and catching up. Thank you for all your comments, which I very much enjoy reading, and Fav's. It's all very much appreciated.

it is so wonderful to see the daffodils! Spring is on it's way for you, but sadly that means our summer is over :(

Mine are still a week away from opening - it will finally feel as is spring has arrived when they do

[Valerie Chesney]

Lovely, Spring is coming, makes you want to spring clean???

[Lis Lapthorn]

Spring is much later this year as my last year's 365 proves. We have very few out too.

Lovely shot with fantastic DOF!

Thank you! I miss seeing daffodils here. They don't do very well at all although you can buy them

It has been an odd spring here. Some daffodils were out in December (early) but most are only now coming out.

There's something a bit special about the first daffodils of the year. I hope our friends in the Southern Hemisphere will enjoy our photos as we go into spring and summer when they're heading for autumn and winter.
