Tulips time

It's all very early this year. Early spring, early tulips. Usually in our region, tulips begin to bloom in May. But it is likely that global warming is making its adjustments to the life of my garden. Unfortunately, my ducks, which I can't call to order, broke some of the plants. Still, it's a rather difficult problem - the garden and the birds at the same time. I'd like to increase my collection, but I don't know how to wean the ducks from tramping on them.

There is another problem that complicates the problem with tulips. In my region, it is recommended to dig up the bulbs in autumn so that they do not freeze in winter. I don't really understand how to look for these bulbs in the ground after the flowers have already blossomed. So much trouble... Natural laziness struggles in me with the desire to have a beautiful flowerbed 😁
