It's Friday already again, and I think it's time for some pictures to make the week end with a bit of colour, especially as the weather forecast for here is mumbling something about "cloudy, and not much chance for sun". Which is a pity, because there's several spots of crocus flowers hanging out in our garden, looking like this:

and they are only waiting for the sun to shine down on them to open up to something like this:

but totally refuse to do so unless there is, you know, proper sunshine for more than five minutes.

There's also some iris, however, and these are undaunted by clouds. They just pop up one day and stand there in all their blue glory:

Totally undaunted by anything the weather might throw at them. When we had a bout of snow on Monday and Tuesday, and everything was suddenly all white (including our willow fence),

the iris still went "What? So there's snow, do you want me to care?"

Pretty little iris. I like your attitude.
