Petra van Cronenburg<p>This day exploded with snowdrops, bees, insects, and the first Red Admirable butterfly (Vanessa atalanta). Since my early childhood, it's my ritual to fill the first seen <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/flowers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>flowers</span></a> after winter into this vase. The snowdrops in our village date from the 1920s. A wonderful scent, the bees are powdered with pollen! If it's too cold, snowdrops are self-pollinators.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/snowdrops" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>snowdrops</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Schneegl%C3%B6ckchen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Schneeglöckchen</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/perceneiges" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>perceneiges</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/galanthus" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>galanthus</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/galanthusNivalis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>galanthusNivalis</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/bloomscrolling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bloomscrolling</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Alsace" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Alsace</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/NaturePark" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NaturePark</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/VosgesDuNord" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VosgesDuNord</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/EarlySpring" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EarlySpring</span></a></p>
