The First Celandine

Visible to anyone in the world
Edited by Richard Walker, Sunday, 13 Feb 2022, 22:47

To the ancient Greeks the celandine was the harbinger of Spring. Its name derives from the Greek chelidōn, for Swallow, another sign of Spring. Our Swallows will not be here for a while, but the birds arrive earler in Greece.
