In Step with Spring in Berkeley, England


In Step with Spring, originally uploaded by Veracity1.

This photograph is alive with the happiness and anticipation of Spring. The Canada Geese and daffodils could probably do a nice do-si-do along about now.

The photograph was taken on February 13, 2008, in Berkeley, England. Veracity1 has included a map of the location, check it out under Additional Details on the photo's flickr page.

Thanks to Veracity1 for posting this wonderful photo and caption "Canada Geese step out briskly on a frosty and foggy February day but the flowering daffodils show that Spring is not too far away :)" , and we'll watch where we step!

New Lamb and New Daffodils on Isle of Man


jm080220 (48), originally uploaded by Isle of Man Newspapers.

I'm not sure I have ever seen a cuter photo of daffodils. This image was taken on February 20, 2008. The lamb is a mere five days old. Photographer John Maddrell, Isle of Man Newspapers, you're bringing lots of smiles to faces around the world right about now.

I was curious about the location of the Isle of Man. Here's the Google Map. The island in the middle of the Irish Sea is the Isle of Man.

And the flowers bloom like madness in the Spring.....

I love the colors in this sunny composition. Mark Robinson took the image on February 19 in Staple Woods, Somerset UK. He has created a nice little map over at "Additional Information" (halfway down on the right of the page, there is a map link).

First Daffodil in Florence - that's in Alabama!

Dirt Therapy posts the first daffodil from his Florence, Alabama garden on February 10. (I'm sure that daffodils in Florence, Italy have been out for awhile.) Thanks, Phillip!

Hampton Court, I'm booking my flight today


Hampton Court, originally uploaded by anthonyfalla.

This photo shows spring is well underway in London, taken at Hampton Court on February 7, 2008. Thanks, Anthony! Expressing what joey mentioned in an earlier comment, there's a bit of unreality to a photo like this when viewed, in my case, from a very cold Boston day with a snowstorm approaching.

Ouch - London Daffodil in the Frost

Alison Devlin captured this image on February 17, 2008, in Surrey Square, London. Look out! Look out! Jack Frost is about! He's after our daffodils. (With "apologies" to Cecily Pike.)
