Warmer, and more humid than of late. No sun. Just clouds. Two degrees at 8am, and a scattering of snow in the frost-pockets.
Spotted in the last week:
Winter jasmine cascading down terrace walls.
Two early daffodils in a south-facing niche.
A pair of purple periwinkles nestling into the roots of a tree.
And...
The first camellias in triumphant bloom.
The mountains & the lake, people & places, children & chickens, frescoes & felines, barbera & books.

Those camellias are early - ours are still in tight bud and not likely to open till at least March. Its really bitter weather here although sunny.

Something is blooming? What a wonderful gift that would be in January.

Frosts still with us until the middle of next week. Some signs of early bulbs showing through. Longer days on the way.
