Time Bandits

              Small flowers with a big name; Chionodoxas or Glory of Snow.            
These blue flowers have attracted bumble bees, wasps and other insects and are
past their glory. This speaks of incoming warm temperatures. Glory be! I am partial to them because they bloom early and usually through the snow. Their tiny seeds germinate in new nearby spots and this habit prompts me to try and connect the "spots" into a carpet. A foolish task which keeps me from Bingo.
