cannons booming, etc....

Spring Peepers

Friday night we heard the first peepers of the season! The ponds still have some ice on them as we've hardly had much for warm days, but like clockwork they were out in full chorus!

These tiny creatures hardly grow to one inch in size and most have a little tell-tale X-mark on their backside. It's the males who are calling out this mating call and they are tricky to catch a glimpse of. They seem to sense your intentions. As soon as you start to quietly creep up on them, they immediately grow silent!

Just in case you don't have them outside your window right now...listen here:

Ahhhh, now that's the sound of Spring arriving!

Spring is Coming...?

Spring is coming...

Isn't it...?!

I haven't seen any crocus popping up yet...

hopefully soon.
