striped petals

It's taking a while for flowers to realize that spring is here. I keep my eyes peeled for glimpses of color close to the ground when I am out.

At the end of my exercise walk this morning I saw two crocus in bloom in a garden that is usually home to many. I assume the others will follow shortly. After I finished my walk I grabbed my camera and headed back to ask the crocus to pose for me.

The small pop of color was delightful.
