You look as rain soaked as we are.<BR/><BR/>Kathleen: I sure hope we do not get the snow you got last week. I am so tired of winter.<BR/><BR/>Darla: So nice to see flowers and not bad to smell either :)<BR/><BR/>Robin: I am so glad that snow missed us to. You are right about the Black butterfly. I know as much about them as I do birds, which is not much at all :)<BR/><BR/>DirtPrincess: Bummer! How dare that old oak branch squash your hyacinth.It was cold and windy here yesterday but the hyacinths survived it.Lonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07060003333138052194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3702367777217796558.post-17300909816084528272009-03-30T12:55:00.000-04:002009-03-30T12:55:00.000-04:00I am glad to see someone had some hyacinths bloom!...I am glad to see someone had some hyacinths bloom!

Mourning cloaks overwinter here as adults, and are usually the first to be seen come spring.
