First daffies and a fairly special sunrise

Hello again
Today I discovered the first nearly blooming daffodils, right here at the foot of the house. Brilliant!
In the neighbouring Community Garden there are some gorgeous dark purple and pure white crocuses. Here's hoping they will survive the coming garden facelift!The other morning I spent an hour going back and forth from kitchen to bedroom to watch a line of cloud backlit by the rising sun. I did manage to miss the actual moment when the sun came over this new horizon but here are a few impressions of how things looked when I got up and how they progressed in the course of an hour or so. (I know, I should get a life...)

Today was gorgeous – mild, sunny for a while, then overcast and scattering a smirr, now it's getting darker and curtains of soft rain are sheeting up the glen.
