Winter in spring: last of the snow?

A glorious morning follows a clear night. There's a sharp frost and a cloudless start to the day.

Right: The view from my study at 6.12 am. The sun now rises before half past five, the day's 12 and half hours long, spring should be with us, but it's not. Still, such sublime winter beauty is to be welcomed. Below: The front garden at 8 am as I'm getting ready to depart for work.

POSTSCRIPT: Indeed, this was the last snow of the winter.
