Spring

Well we are barely a month into Winter, but these daffodil shoots are making me think of Spring.  The poor things are looking a rather battered , probably from Luna running her soccer ball over them, so they are 

 going to need a little protection.

Yeah, that's a Jake butt to the right.  I did have him cropped out at one point, but liked the composition of the picture better with the daffodils off to one side, and more of the apple tree trunk showing.
