In our garden there are Daffodils and Bluebells showing their green leaves above the ground. The Robins, Pigeons and Blackbirds are displaying and pairing. The Bay tree has new green leaves and a there are few new sprigs of Lavender opening up. It feels as though Spring has sprung but I am not sure that this is out of synch with last year or not. I think this is a fascinating thread by the way, thanks for posting it
