The bluebells arrived so early this year. I am lucky to have a few in my garden so I don't have to go far to try and catch a bluebell portrait. Sadly I didn't get out to find a carpet of bluebells this year so I've added a picture from a couple of years ago.

For me, one of the highlights of the end of the skiing season in the Alps is the appearance of the wild crocus. As the snow recedes they start popping up, the white ones pop up first followed by the purple. This year they all started springing up suddenly over a warm weekend and were just looking lovely when winter returned and buried them under a blanket of snow and they were gone again.

Well, at long last it's feeling like spring is here and in between the showers, I've manage to get out and about and enjoy the flowers and spring colour. I've now got lots of pictures to sort through and share.
