    I love the last picture the best, it is glorious! I have never seen an immature Pussy Willow before! Only when they have Catkins. The Glory-Of-The-Snow is new to me too. Such a wonderful shade of blue!

    The little blue flower is amazing. I don't think I've ever seen a flower with such an intense blue color.

    I saw irises blooming for the first time today--still not in any great abundance, though.
