[Leica] IMG: More Daffodils

[Aram]

Not quite ready here.  We had that warm spell when I posted my last 
flower photo, but it has returned to winter the last 4 days. Lows in the 
low teens, highs in the low  30's and winds in the 30+ mph that give a 
real bite to being outside.  Orchardists are quite concerned as the 
trees have started to come out of dormancy so the buds are at a delicate 
stage.  They have no water yet in the irrigation system to use for frost 
control, so they are using their fans and maybe smudge pots.
