These wonderful tulips are blooming in a state park nearby.  They remind me of the highly prized "Viceroy" tulip of the 17th century Dutch Tulip Mania.

During my morning walk to work two days ago I found this Iris stalk laying on the ground, having been chewed off near ground level by the local bunny.  At the time it had only one bloom open at the very top.  Today I came into my office and discovered these two blooms had opened, and the original bloom had shriveled.  I can't tell you how happy it made me to see these blooms open.
