We had a whole bunch here about 2 weeks ago when all of you in Virginia etc. were getting your big snow storms. Guess they were confused by the change in weather patterns!
Good to see them, though!

I am not ready for Spring for a couple months or so, It can get really warm here and very muggy. I'm never ready for that. I wouldn't mind if all of you got Spring.

We've got the fattest robins I've seen in years here. They have been here since the last week in Jan, so I think they are local. Narcissus is up about 4" and daffodils are about 2". Hope spring is not too far away.

Today is a beautiful warm spring day. I just inside to cool off and put on shorts. Everything is beginning to look and feel like spring here in the south eastern coast.
Daylight saving time begins March 14.

What does it mean if foxes bark? Is spring mating season?

ROBINS SHOWED UP IN CENTRAL ILLINOIS THIS MORNING! I was so excited. It was 14 degrees and they were puffed up into round balls trying to keep warm, probably wondering why in the world they traveled north so early.

Now I start the crocus watch.
