Well; Maybe Not!

Tomorrow is March 1st but the temps seem to think it is mid-January. Hopefully we'll get some moderation next week with day time highs projected to be in the 40s. The ground is froze solid and we still have some snow in the shadows. Let's just hope we don't have one of those long drawn-out cold springs.

Anticipation continues..............here is a shot of a visitor we had in one of the blue bird boxes a couple of springs ago.

Spring Is Just Around The Corner

Even though we had some of the coldest nights of the season this week (very near zero), the girls have held up well and we continue to get three to four eggs daily. I still am amazed! The days are slowly getting longer and the sun higher at mid-day. Spring is just around the corner.


After last night's snow storm, today is bright sunshine with highs in the 20s. A perfect day to pull back the storm cover and add in the dust bath. It really is amazing to watch them enjoy laying in the sun and wallowing in the dirt.
