As last week was ending, your friend and mine, Lin Kay, posted a pic of her snow drops. In past years, hers would appear before ours. However, the last two years they appeared at about the same time. I had to check it out, and with an assist from Sylvia, we found ours were out too.
Sylvia captured this image late Saturday afternoon. It is good to see the annual cycle of life continue with the coming of spring. These beauties are just one of many signs.
I miss the crocus blossoms and hyacinths that used to grace our grounds. It seems they became lunch for some burrowing critters.
Today I saw grackles and heard the trill of a red-winged blackbird. Robins have been around for a few days and vultures are patrolling the skies.
What are your sure signs of spring?
