Steaming Fields

Quite a good soak last night. And this morning, driving west, after a brief break in the clouds, Pax and I tunneled through billowing clouds of steam rising from dark, recently plowed fields. (The traffic situation not conducive to photography.) Something I've never seen before, resembling sea smoke.

Hellebores blooming. 

Hellebores blooming. 

The serviceberries are quickly moving from silver to white, and the redbuds are finally budding (red).

More rain now.
