I usually have snowdrops by now. No sign of them yet. We've had a cold winter and lots of snow. One year I had daffodils by March 25th. I haven't even seen a sprout yet. They're still buried under the snow. Paul -- Original message -- From: "David J Brooks" <[EMAI

Dave, We usually have snowdrops by mid-February and the start of early spcies tulips by now. Sadly, only one snowdrop has made an appearance near my south facing front door. It hasn't been a particularly cold winter in Chicago, but the snow has held back the garden. Regards, Bob S. On Sun, Mar 23

I applaud the efforts on the hummingbirds. They are very difficult to capture in flight, but the nest shot is marvelous. You will have more fun in the summer with them and the K20D. The instant feedback is very helpful. Tulip time already for you? We still see snow and not even the early varie
