FIRST SPRING FLOWERS IN THE WOODS!


Suddenly, after last week's snow, the world has changed... There is something spring-like in the air, the chirping and singing of birds sounds more spring-like, the air smells different, the light is softer... and the first little spring flowers are sprouting all over the woods!

Oh, primula and liverleaf, how wonderful :) Beautiful photos, such a lovely sight of spring.
We will have to wait untill April/May before they start to come out. Can't wait!!
Hugs :)

I'm glad you liked the spring preview, Hilde! :) Spring comes a little bit earlier here in the Alps than in Norway -- hang on in, you're almost there too! :)
Hugs!

Omg! Is that true!? We have a good 3 months' wait until these blue wonders in the woods, still snowing today, too!
Thank you so much for visiting my blog so often and commenting <3

Hehe Mags, yes, spring comes a little earlier in the Alps than in Finland... and it's fascinating to see it "travel" North little by little... These are just the first signs of spring though -- the woods will be really in full bloom in a couple of weeks! Sending a little spring breeze your way! Hugs :)

Thank you Marie-Anne! :)
The little purple flowers are called liverleaf (anemone epathica), due to the liver-like form of their leaves.
