I have decided to join the blogging craze. I am looking forward to taking a moment to find out a little more about the plants I have been photographing. I hope to explore all aspects of plants, flowers, trees and other garden related topics. Sorry about having to watermark the photos but there are a lot of people using them without permission.

Pheasant’s Eye Narcissus
Pheasant’s Eye Narcissus
I am posting this as a sign of hope for this spring. It was taken April 24th, 2004 with my 4MP Nikon 4300. This is one of my favorite Daffodils and in the scope of the Estate’s Daffodil collection blooms fairly late. I am going to try and shoot a few more daffodil pictures this spring as I noticed I don't have that many in the library. Each spring there are about 10,000 Daffs at work.
We got another dusting of snow last night, which was something I could have done without. There is 2 to 4 inches predicted for Friday night now. There is a glimmer of hope for next week with some milder temperatures.
Someone asked about Molly in the comments section yesterday. She has had a little setback as a large section of skin lost blood flow during the operation and has turned a disgusting shade of purple. It is oozing a little fluid also. I am taking her back to the vet to get her stitches out and have the doctor look at the skin patch. It is confirmed that she has cancer and a very bad type. We took her to a specialist this week but there is nothing they can do until her side heals. There are several treatments available but we won’t which is best until her side gets better.

You photos are so clear and crisp. How do you do that? Beautiful.
beautiful daffodil. I'm sorry to hear about your dog. It's sad when the animals we love get these horrible diseases that are so deadly. Wishing you luck.
That white is so crisp. Beautiful!
I have never seen a white daffodil, beautiful!
I'm sorry to hear the diagnosis for Molly.
I look forward to seeing your spring blooms. We have snow in the forecast for tonight too.
Beautiful pics....as always. So sad about your dog....my dog is my baby, so I really feel for you. I hope she stays comfortable and recovers.
Thanks for the nice words about the flower and Molly. You are right tracy, she is our baby.
I feel the Spring
