Has spring arrived?

The forsythia is coming into bud. It's not one of my favourites, but it is growing on me, excuse the pun. The daffodils have put on a good show. The tulips have not come through yet, they usually  come through after the daffodils. Coming home I saw a bank full of miniature daffodils, swaying in the breeze.
Had the back door open for a while so the warmth of outside came in and it gave it's scent to waft over the house. Spring like autumn has it's own unique scent which I love.
The birds have been and still are very busy. The blackbirds who have nested in the garden are still there, they seem to be happy.
Later on this month the clocks will be going forward so we will have longer daylight, that will be nice. And it's nice to have longer daylight hours at this very moment.
Yesterday while I was putting the recycling out I heard the dawn chorus, I stopped what I was doing and listened to it and it was a beautiful sound.
