Stop and smell the Daffodils



Daffodils are in season now here in the Mediterranean island of Cyprus. I got these wild ones growing in my garden.  Wish you could smell them! Their pungent perfume is so exciting and intoxicating at the same time.  I dare say I picked the bulbs from a field a few years ago, which in my opinion is a form of preserving this species, seeing that the whole island is being built up so much, soon we will have no wild life at all!
