The first year I moved into my current home, the Daffodils were all abloom around the house and yard. Then, the chipmunks came to live. I swear they moved every blasted bulb over the Winter. I never know where a Daffodil is going to pop up each new Spring. It kinda makes me crazy. :o) You've given me a new appreciation for their beauty though. Visiting from FTF. Thanks for sharing.
