Is any body elses daffodils beginning to sprout?

Even tho it is early, the weather in my zone 6b area has been mild and the daffodils are up a couple of inches.



It is not a problem however, daffodils and other spring bulbs have a unique ability to "heat up" when the temps dip below freezing, and this protects them.



In sunny spots in my garden, they start blooming in early February, sometimes late January if the mild weather holds.



Isn't it excitiing, to see all the things that are green and growing already? My forsythia already has blooms! So does the winter jasmine and the tiny pink viola odorata! And the hellebores are not far behind.
