Spring is here!!
Though it may sound weird to shout that spring has arrived in the 6th of January. It is middle of the winter after all. But look what I found today in a park!
I also saw oranges and figs growing there. So birds have some nice fruits to munch on (not sure f they eat oranges though).
- Arisasum simorrhinum - one of the coolest flowers around. And this is the second type I found around here.
- Solanum nigrum (Black nightshade)
- Echium plantagineum
- Fumaria sepium
- Oxalis - this one blooms almost all year round. I also found a much smaller pink one on a lawn outside our building, but before I shot it they cut the grass. Dammit.
- Some kind of wild nettle with weird flowers. I couldn't find the name for it.
- Tiny wild geranium. Those are terrible weeds and grow everywhere!
- Daucus carota - also called Queen Anne's lace with pretty pink flowers.
- Corrigiola litoralis (strapwort) - still with buds only. Those are like 1 mm across. Tiny things!
The only worry is that maintenance guys keep cutting the grass around there. And with the grass go all the flowers and shrooms too!

Great photos. I definitely need to buy me a good camera this year. Tired of smartphone photography.
Go for it! It is much more fun than smartphone :)

Want to have your post on the map too?
If I can ask, in which country did you take the bud pictures? I just saw some too and would like to know if it was in the vicinity of Germany...
I am in Portugal. Spring comes earlier here, but this is extremely early I think :p
yeah, in fact if it goes on like this we didn't have a winter here.... crazy
Great photos!
Really as spring!
Many of these flowers grow in our country.
Thank you very much for Curator!
We have very similar climates :)
Does your trees start to grow flower buds too?
On some (seasonal). Yes.
Now we have the lowest temperature + 16 C
And wild orchids have already released leaves :-)))
This week I’m going to go see
whether flamingos and other birds arrived for the winter.
For photos and take a walk.
