Spring Has Arrived!!

Yup, it's finally arrived - SPRING!!

At least I think it has. The reason I am unsure is due to the rain that turned to sleet that turned to snow this past Saturday night into Sunday. Approximately 3 inches fell in our area. Ah, but the good news is it warmed up into the low 50's and it all melted.

The bugs, birds and wildlife have begun to stir with the arrival of the warmer weather. I've noticed the Canadian geese pairing up too, which can only mean one thing - more 'goose grease' to come and fill the sidewalks, ball fields etc...watch your step!

Our bird feeders are full with a variety of visiting birds this Spring. We're looking forward to having some of these fine feather friends stick around and take up residence in one of our many bird houses. Even if they don't nest in one of the boxes I hope they stay near by and continue to visit.
