The sighting of certain flowers is among the first signs of spring. Locals in Montana's Sweet Grass Hills say the "Ol' Crocus Prairie flower," pictured here, is typically the first wildflower they see. It's sometimes so early it peeks out through the spring snow. The flower also goes by the names "...gosling plant, pasque-flower, windflower and more."
