Is it Spring yet Dad?

Like Canada it would seem, we still have snow on the ground here in Bulgaria. We had heavy late snow falls about 8-10 days ago accross the country. The melt is now fast as day temps of +20c and night temps of upto +14c clear the winter away ( I hope.... )
Pics are from a trip to the border area between Bulgaria and Serbia to see Crocus tommasinianus.

beautiful area, chris--great views!

I'm hearing complaints now about how the cold winter may have hurt the wildlife, which makes an interesting change from how warm winters hurt the wildlife   Hopefully it hurt the slugs and snails which have become a nightmare the last few years

Well inland of us it certainly devastated the bird population little or nothing for them to feed on. I doubt it will have had any effect on slugs, snails or vine weevils!
