Daffodils

It’s been the most glorious spring day here today.  So – naturally – I went in search of daffodils.  Of course, you only have to step out of the door to find daffodils…

…but I wanted masses of them – Wordsworthian swathes of them.  And I found them at East Riddlesden Hall.

…fluttering and dancing in the breeze’.

Host of golden daffodils... what JOY to see all this lush early-spring beauty. And that last photo is especially dreamy...*swoon*... Happy Spring Days, Helen :o) ((HUGS))

And then my heart with pleasure fills,
and dances with the daffodils.
These photos make our hearts dance Helen

As an ex-pat living in New York, I loved your blast of Englishness
and Wordsworthian glee at the arrivall of spring
and lovely photos too.

While we still have the white stuff all around us to see a world of yellow and green makes a heart happy and a tinge envious.

Sorry to be the cause of envy, Lanny! I'm sure when spring comes it will be all the sweeter! :)
