Crocus Season

It's Sunday. Was hoping to start doing some gardening but the promised sunnier weather was not there to be seen. Cloudy sky and chilly winds seemed to be the order of the day. Save the sceneries all around which were quite welcoming, so instead we went on a bike ride around the neighbourhood.

The crocus, this one known as the "Dutch crocus" are the first flowers to bloom in late winter to early spring period. They seem to form a beautiful mat everywhere, pleasant to the eyes.

With time, the crocus are later followed by other flowers especially tulips. Then leaves would start to grow from the big trees. Within weeks the trees and the surrounding would be completely transformed to real living and green surrounding again.
