It was cold and raining all day yesterday and they remained closed (interesting, how they manage to protect themselves):
However, today was very sunny, and the two crocuses were opened:
The crocuses are right on the edge of what had once been a terraced garden in my back yard, that has long been covered over with earth and growth. This spring, I will be excavating and revitalizing this garden. There is also a nice apple tree growing right in the center that I'll prune and get into good shape, so we'll have plenty of edible apples come Fall.

Very pretty and I think they must be a cousin to my crocuses! :-)
Clearly, they are of the same family! :-)
Your pics are always so crisp. Do you have a fancy camera or a point & shoot??
I sure hope my bulbs haven't sprouted up at our cabin. I want them to wait 'til I get back home! (probably the end of April)I put several different flowers in the ground before the snow hit. I guess I'll see soon enough. :<)
Hi Cassie,
Thanks! It's just a point & shoot, a Sony. I cannot recall off-hand what the model number is; SP300? Or something like that. About 8.6 MegaPixels. I'll take a look when I get home and post the specifics in a new comment.
Can't wait to see some spring time photos of yours from Idaho! :-)

Cassie,
My camera is a Sony CyberShot (DSC-W90) with 8.1 megapixel resolution. It's about 2 years old. I often use a tripod to steady the camera in low-light situations. That's generally how I get good crisp shots.
