first daffodil in the neighborhood

Elsewhere in the city I've seen daffodils (and crocus) blooming already, but on this street and nearby ones, nothing. Then yesterday, just in time for spring, the first daffodil bloomed in my neighbors' yard. I can seen this clump from the sink, and also from the deck where I took this picture.

pillow fight

The pillow lost:

The two large dogs staying in this suite had been there for several days without any trouble when this happened. The mattress was a bystander, not too severely injured.
