    Lovely – and because I can’t see the stems/leaves they look like they’re little hummingbirds hovering in the air!

  3. cecily says

    March 7, 2008 at 7:26 am

    So jealous! There aren’t any croci (as my family lovingly calls them) here yet. Soon…

  4. sean says

    March 7, 2008 at 7:26 am

    JEALOUS!

  5. Laurie says

    March 7, 2008 at 7:28 am

    You are FIRST. Yippee! It’s still sprinter here, as Margene so aptly called it.

  6. Beth says

    March 7, 2008 at 7:32 am

    Yea! I love that first sign of spring.

  7. Karen says

    March 7, 2008 at 7:43 am

    YAY!! Spring can’t get here fast enough for me.

  8. margene says

    March 7, 2008 at 7:48 am

    I’m going out and look today to see if there is any sign of spring around here!

  9. Deb says

    March 7, 2008 at 8:10 am

    No fair 🙁

  10. Brenda says

    March 7, 2008 at 8:17 am

    I’m jealous too! My bulbs are buried under about 2 feet of snow ;-(
    Thanks for the picture.

  11. Leslie says

    March 7, 2008 at 8:27 am

    Nothing that pretty here yet! I’m ready, though.

  12. Robin in VA says

    March 7, 2008 at 8:39 am

  13. Kathleen Pascuzzi says

    March 7, 2008 at 8:46 am

    More than jealous!! This morning in Minneapolis it is 16 below zero. Below Zero!!! A crocus would not live more than 10 seconds here today. I miss New England…

  14. Chris says

    March 7, 2008 at 8:51 am

    Ack! It’s -6F here right now!

  15. Lucia says

    March 7, 2008 at 9:01 am

    Lucky devil. I don’t think ours will come for at least a couple of weeks yet — the yard is still half covered in snow.

  16. Barbara-Kay says

    March 7, 2008 at 9:07 am

    Amen, Sister!

  17. FiberFeverKate says

    March 7, 2008 at 9:10 am

    Dont rub it in… there are about 4 feet of snow in my front yard 🙂
    Actually I welcome your picture… a sign that spring really IS going to arrive this year, even if it will be June by the time it makes it’s way up here.

  18. Wool Winder says

    March 7, 2008 at 9:19 am

    You can’t stop spring!

  19. Sunflowerfairy says

    March 7, 2008 at 9:32 am

    You know- I think the groundhog was wrong this year.

    Yesterday I was driving around with the sunroof open. It was warm in my car. And if you stood in the sun, you could actually feel heat!

    Hello, spring? Hurry!

  20. Lynne says

    March 7, 2008 at 9:48 am

    Yay! This has been one long winter.

  21. Manise says

    March 7, 2008 at 9:51 am

    Sprinter still here- birds are singing and snow still on the ground. No crocuses for me- mine were devoured 2 winters ago by voles. I’ve not replaced them yet with a cage of wire around them.

  22. Hillary says

    March 7, 2008 at 9:53 am

    Hooray for spring!

  23. Teyani says

    March 7, 2008 at 10:09 am

  24. Cheryl S. says

    March 7, 2008 at 10:13 am

    At least SOMEONE has some! Lovely.

  25. Beth S. says

    March 7, 2008 at 10:23 am

    OMG! Lucky you! I haven’t spotted any greenery at all yet.

  26. Cookie says

    March 7, 2008 at 12:34 pm

    Yay!

    They remind me of baby birds sticking their little heads out of the nest waiting for momma/lunch.

    Happy Weekend, Carole!

  27. Kim says

    oooooooo, i’m so jealous! we got crocus bulbs but never planted them 🙁 ever since i lived in sweden i wanted them, because they’re always the very first to poke their heads out through the snow and welcome the spring. lucky you! they’re beautiful.

  32. Amanda says

    March 7, 2008 at 7:55 pm

    Oh you are lucky! We’ve had so much snow, that if the crocuses have made it up yet, they’re buried. Bring on the spring!

  33. theLady says

    March 7, 2008 at 8:30 pm

    Ah, aren’t crocuses magical?

  34. The Feminist Mafia says

    What a beautiful sign of spring, and a beautiful photo. We still have snow here in MI, lots and lots of snow, so your picture brought a smile to my face, a great reminder of what’s to come.

  37. Lynne says

    March 8, 2008 at 9:18 am

    You have crocus, I have two feet of snow. Lovely photo, Carole, and LOVELY swap package from you came yesterday!!!! THANK YOU!
