Still Searching for Spring

Still on the hunt for spring. There is no snow and more sun and just a bit more warmth. My Forsythia hints of blooms so I broke off some branches to study more closely and force into bloom. I will keep you 'posted'.

LOVELY, Sue -- that bit of green against the brown -- so evident of the slow emergence of spring .. it's coming -- it's coming -- and this twig captures it beautifully!
