Another Spring Wildflower

Amidst the last of the winter aconites, and at the same time as the lesser celandines and wood anemones, these nice blue little stars have popped up in a forest near my home town in The Netherlands.

I think these are in the genus Scilla, probably alpine squill (Scilla bifolia), called vroege sterhyacint in Dutch. Edit: according to Faltermann in the comments, these are Chionodoxa luciliae, and I am inclined to take his word for it, but as we don't have these in the wild in The Netherlands, it could also be Forbes' glory-of-the-snow (Chionodoxa forbesii), grote sneeuwroem in Dutch.

Originally from Turkey, these plants have spread to The Netherlands and are found in forests:

^{Olympus Stylus 1s, 42mm, ISO200, f8, 1/80s}

^{Olympus Stylus 1s, 42mm, ISO200, f5.6, 1/100s}

^{Olympus Stylus 1s, 42mm, ISO200, f5.6, 1/100s}

Another nice bit of colour in the forest and another harbinger of spring.

Thanks for watching!
