Four petal snowdrop

Is this my lucky year?

More on March 2
I am triple lucky I have found two more! Thanks for the tip Rick they are four tepals and not petals!
I have spotted this form previously in this clump of snowdrops so it is not a just one off occurrence. One of the pictures is the normal three petal form from the same clump

    1. It was the nearest thing handy to hold it up and I just wanted evidence before it wilted. Never intended to publish it!
