I was nominated by a fellow blogger, Stella of Giggles & Tales, for a 7-Day Nature Photo Challenge. Stella’s blog is always full of interesting posts, which are a blend of poetry, photography and perspectives on the world around her. Go check her blog out!!
In this second post in the series, let’s celebrate the Vernal Equinox!! Yeah, it’s Spring in the Northern Hemisphere (don’t forget to say hi to Autumn in the Southern Hemisphere).
Today’s nature photo is one of my favorite flowers, the Daffodil. Their design makes for such an inviting, pleasant flower, calling all pollinators to come in from the breeze.
In terms of color varieties, I prefer the yellow-petalled with the slightly orange trumpet over the white-petalled or overly ostentatious orange trumpets.
Which varieties do you like best?

The daffodil is one of my favorite flowers too. Beautiful.
Thank you!
Beautiful flowers , lovely shot and takes me back to Wordsworth ….such jocund company!
Thank you so much! Wordsworth is ready for some Spring cheer!
..and so am I !
I love the ‘traditional’ yellow daffodils too. I have some with a peach trumpet, they’re very pretty but the yellow’s are still the best. Daffodils are the true indicator that spring is here. Hurrah!
I agree that they are the Spring tide!
With the Daffy’s comes the spring in all of us.
I like all daffodils 🙂 but we won’t see them here until round mid-April!
