Springing Ahead

Well it looks like we are finally "Springing ahead, Today is the first day of Spring and it is about 50 out in the Sunshine but that wind is cold !!!

.

.

The "Pussy Willows" are budding out, This is a sure sign of "Spring' !  The species most commonly called pussy willow in the Northeast, Salix discolor, is a small, shrubby species of willow that can be found dotting wetlands and moist woods throughout much of North America.

.

The Daffodils are coming up thru the unfrozen Ground which is nice to see the Green and soon Yellow flowers in the green/brown winter Grass !

.

.

There are Hundreds and Hundreds of Geese flying overhead an some are high and some are lower that are going to land on the river which is right near us, they are loud and messy but a nice sign of Spring !

.

.

The Robins have been spotted scampering between the patches of Snow looking for bugs and worms, We also have Red Wing Blackbirds.

We were driving up to Church this morning and outside the Village My Honey looked over and yelled "Eagles" and sure enough there was 2 American Bald Eagles setting down onto the Ice in the Black River,  it is a Treat an thrill to see them, we have probably 8 Pairs of them around this area and seeing them is amazing and using her phone we got a couple blurry pictures, I was parked in the road and didn't have much time to sit there in case of a car coming up behind us !

.

We are going back to Church Palm Sunday an I have to install some barriers for Church Regs befor we open !
