The First Snowdrop

I love the way these little Snowdrops (Galanthus) start blooming so early every year regardless of what the weather is like. Here's this year's first bloom. When I see these dainty little snow-white blossoms I know that crocuses and daffodils are not too far away.

Can't believe you have snowdrops already! It was -20C here this morning in Toronto!

Nice photo. I don't notice snowdrops, but crocuses give me the same hope later on.
