Snowdrops.

Yes, the little flowers are out in the gardens now, despite the recent cold spell. They certainly brighten up up our gardens a bit in this dreary time of the year. I suppose that in another couple of months the grass will be growing and we shall hear the happy clatter of the lawn mowers on a sunday morning. A pleasent thought to hold on to in the depths of winter, although many of those who have to drive the lawnmowers might well not be looking forward to their springtime reappearence in quite the same way.
