"The daffodil, jonquil, and narcissus are very closely related, and quite similar. They all come from bulbs which should be planted in September; but after the first planting, they will flower on year after year, bringing much brightness to the gardens in the early spring."I don't know if it is "early spring" but my narcissus/paper whites are all pushing up out of the ground among my violets. I know it won't be long now until I have some fragrant beauties to enjoy.

Our birdfeeders are busy every day as many, many different waves of birds come through to feast. These finches are all sharing so nicely. I noticed that there have been quite a few birds in the birdbath as well.
We are getting ready to take part in the Great Backyard Bird Count from February 13-16, 2009.
I encourage you all to look into this family activity as well. Here is the link to find out all about it:
