The very first brave daffodil pokes out of the grass and dead leaves, under blue skies in sunny but chilly Russell Square. A welcome sign of spring to come.
First daffodil spotted!

Bloomsbury Squares & Gardens 
I included the daffodil on NY day when I participated (I’m an amatuer botanist) in the Annual Botanical Society of Britain and Ireland. Found 18 species in flower – their rule is only wildflowers or naturalised plants may be included. Fyi I also surveyed Brunswick Square and St George’s Gardens
