Bee and Crocus - true signs of spring

I almost missed these. They burst into bloom with the first, full, sunny day after days of cold rain. Bees were everywhere, celebrating the floral explosion. (The weather lured me outside out and I couldn't help but rake and search for new growth. These were one of the rewards.)

  1. How beautiful Kari! I love to see bees poking around in the first flowers of spring. We don't see many crocus around here, so seeing yours makes me miss them. When we lived up in Oregon, I couldn't wait for them to poke out of the ground in the spring. Enjoy~ xxVicki

  2. Will they inspire you into a new weaving project?
