Those are very beautiful flowers. BTW, our human has let us start our own blog. Happy WW!
Ohhh, I love that snowdrop! You take such beautiful flower pictures, Jams! (give me a couple of months and I'll start posting some too every now and again! We can grow them here, really, I swear it!)
Pretty flowers!! Reminds me of the yellow flowers that are selling like hotcakes here now... I think the Khmer-Chinese community considers them lucky for this year. Gong Xi Fa Cai!@
Hi Jams. Great shots. They make me think of my late grandmother, who had crocus planted in a flowerbed near her front door every year. I miss her -- and the crocus.
I miss the snowdrops that were in my gram's garden. We had to leave them behind when we moved 7 years ago. Your picture reminds me that I'd like to get some snowdrop bulbs for the fall. Lovely photos for WW!
I am having so much trouble, here, where we are having two snow storms and ice storms a week, to grasp that you aren't. These are beautiful flowers and photographs. I remember that exciting feeling of the first flower photos of the year. But it ain't gonna happen here for three more months!

Beautiful reminders that Valentine's Day is on its way. Great shots, Jams.
Beautiful reminders of Spring, yippee.
Beautiful, Jams! Such a relief that spring is on its way at last...
Seems as if everyone's posting double today!!
Snowdrops are definitely my favourite. Always makes me think of my granny.
Cheers
Stunning flowers! The first one looks like a lamp shade. Happy WW.

I like the crocus, the the snowdrop is simply stunning. Very nice shot.
Beautiful pictures. That kind of flower color is especially beautiful this time of year when most everything else is brown.
Happy WW!
I always love your shots. I love the crocus, amazing.

Hi! Beautiful flowers as always!
Thanks for the visit.
Hey, Jams!
Great shots!
the snowdrop is really captivating!
Ooooh, such pretties!
I don't have anything blooming right now except for my hardy dianthus.
It's nice to see things out but they are a little early.
