A Host of Frozen Daffodils.....












William Wordsworth's "... host of golden daffodils" were "fluttering and dancing" in the warmth of a Lake District Spring in 19th Century England.


These hopeful modern day derivatives were caught out this morning by April snow across southern England. Seasons out of sync with bio-cycles, both for the daffodils and those wishing to pick them.
