Spring

[Tracey]

I just put the milk bottles out and got a hugh wiff of spring. Got Hubby and daughter (Amy) to sniff and Amy said 'Oh yeah I've been telling my friends to smell that all day, it's smells lovely'. I'm so pleased that she noticed the smell of spring appoaching.

[Hans Mum]

Ho thats lovely the smell of spring in the air, roll on Spring

That spring smell AND the fact that I have got washing out on the line two days running now. Will the tumble drier be retiring for summer soon??

[Headfry]

ooooh ....I know just what you mean, I always say that I can smell the seasons change, people think I am mad. But I can smell 'growing' its wonderful.
I am not alone

Its so exciting isn't it. I have a large shrub called daphne odora outside my back door that has just come into flower. The smell is fantastic and little handful are sitting in eggcups on every shelf around the house. Love it Love it...That is the smell of spring for me!

My dwarf irises and hellebores are out, and today really feels like the first day of spring! I heard crossbills singing to each other this morning. There is anticipation in the air!

Out here too Birdie, as are the crocuses on the top terrace around the trees.

It's just glorious here now - this morning was grey, overcast and a bit \cold but all that's cleared now, the sky is Dordogne blue and clear and I'm going to be out there this afternoon.

Blissssssssssss

Any whiff of spring here was diluted this morning by a gale and heavy rain!

[moggssue]

Yeh, I'm with Jennie, too wet and windy this morning which just meant a quick dash from front door to car then into office. What a shame - but glad some of you are enjoying it.

I always wake up one morning and think 'Ooh, it's spring, autumn, whatever. I haven't sensed the whiff of spring here yet though.

[starwatcher]

no whiff of spring here either rather wet and gloomy this morning though it has brightened up a bit now

[Two_Sheds]

I was woken by the cooing of courting pigeons this morning. More pigeons, just what we need

[rustylady]

Snowdrops are out, also the cream and yellow crocuses, blue buds showing on the grape hyacinths in the front border, but the forsythia isn't showing colour on the buds yet!! Still, I think it's almost Spring proper!! Walked home from work in daylight today!!!
