First blooms

Wicked_Dark

The first flowers I notice are whitlow grass. there's a large patch of them in my yard and they attract insects the moment the open. each is 1 inch or smaller in height and these closed buds are 3-4mm. They were frosty before the sun came out, but when it did the frost didn't stand a chance -

I love these tiny guys. They're all open now. Thanks for checking it out.

thanks, B. my macros aren't everyone's cup of tea, clearly, but I like revealing the tiny worlds we so often trample. and yeah, that early sun is pretty sweet. I wasn't sure about the bokeh though - those water droplets refract like mad.
