It’s a sure sign of spring coming in Sevilla when the orange trees lining the streets and squares are harvested. Won’t be long now before the azahar starts blossoming…
How do you know spring is coming where you are?

The blossom on the dwarf magnolia in the garden is about ready to go. Always a sure sign.

The cranes are back, which is a sure sign of spring. Then there are the first crocuses, too.

Daffodils! When I see the daffs out my heart soars and my spirit lifts. It means the lighter mornings and evenings are coming which is so much more preferable for dog-walking.

Days are noticeably longer, and I don’t shiver when walking at night. The air smells more springy. And seagulls are back.

I love how the signs of spring are so different for everyone. Yesterday I smelled the first orange blossom (azahar) in the air, so now spring is officially here.

Here in L.A., if you blink you missed Spring. Right now *might* be it, though. It actually rained over the weekend, with thunder snow in the local mountains and hail on Huntington Veach. It’s 72° today.
