A week and a half ago I posted some photos of early flowering plants here in northwest New York State. Though I was away much of this week on a business trip, the weather evidently was warm, sunny, and evidently very nice all around.
Here are some photos to show you how far things have come in just a few days.

From the top left, going clockwise: early buds on a cherry tree, snow drops in their leaf mulch, some onion plants in the garden that were not harvested last year. and winter aconite spreading across the border by the driveway.
By the way, it might snow on Monday.
