Queen Bumble

 It was beautiful spring like weather yesterday.

The sun doing its best to transform the winter into early spring. 
Crocuses and snowdrops everywhere in my garden. Such a delight.
I was wondering if The Bumbles were out and feasting on the nectar in the crocuses.

Knowing that the bumbles we see in Februari are all Queens, made me look at them in a different way. (see my previous posts)
And Yes! I noticed one Queen bumble feasting and going from one crocus to another.

Thousands of drops

 Yesterday it had been raining, but son the sun came out to change the world into a mesmerizing beauty.
Thousands of water drops and dewdrops on every grass blade, snowdrops and on the early crocusses.
Spring is on it way. (Click on the photo's to see the beautiful diamond like drops)

Snowdrops and a crocus

 It's really happening! spring marching forward!

Lots of snowdrops daring to come out again and even a crocus is blooming!

Birds even, are singing already... inspecting nest boxes...!

Snowdrops and crocus

Lots of sparkles in the grass.
Water-drops on snowdrops and crocuses...
Spring definitely arrived!

So much sparkles everywhere!
 

Breaking out

 It  amazes me, that the small, fragile crocus have the strength and power to break out, even when growing under and between stones.

I did not plant them there...This crocus specie makes seeds after blossoming. The seeds must have sown themselves between the stones. And now they come out on the weirdest places. 

It every year reminds me of the power of nature,

Spring

Compared to a week ago, from middle of winter and being snowed under, its a complete change now.

Crocuses are blossoming all over the place and birds singing and tweeting, even inspecting the birdhouses.

Mesmerising beauty

Last night it had frozen a little bit.
As the sun came out, I saw millions of little diamonds shining, sparkling all over the place.
The crocus had come out already because of the soft winter.
It was so mesmerising to see all these lights radiating and gently moving sparkling colours.
