[Leica] January Jonquil

[jhnichols at bellsouth.net (Jim Nichols)]

Bob,

After doing a little on-line research, I find that you are correct. The 
correct name for the flower is Daffodil.  The term Jonquil is misused in 
parts of North America, and actually refers to a different flower.  Thanks 
for pointing this out.
