Early Spring


We're having an unusually early and warm spring in Albuquerque. I checked my photos from last year, and these blossoms first appeared on the 22nd; this year it was the 4th. And some of the trees are already sprouting green fuzz. My predictions: it will almost certainly snow in the next week (for maximum interference with the flowering trees); and more century plants than usual will bloom this year (they seem to like a hot, dry spring).
