Early Daffodils

Daffodils are amongst the first flowers to come out of the ground and I'm always happy to see them, but it's rather sad they are opening earlier each year. This is taken today on my commute home from the office.



I have a picture of a daffodil from 1982 that was taken shortly after St. Patrick's Day (March 17th). That date is nearly 4 weeks earlier than it was 26 years ago.

On the same walk, I passed a stretch of the Beltline right-of-way. The brush has been cleared, but I'm not sure what is being prepared. This is looking south from Virginia Avenue. It's clear that there is room for a pedestrian trail alongside light rail along this stretch.
