Nature Friday - More Tropics



We join our dear friends Rosy and the Boyz for Nature Friday.

While we are days away from the official end of winter, we still feel like we are in the throws of it. The first 2 weeks of March were unseasonably cold for the most part, with morning temperatures below -20C/-4F meaning morning walks were out. While this week has been nice for walking, it started with a  good dumping of snow (somewhere between 10-15 cms or 4 to 6 inches. So because we are over it at this point (we have had snow on the ground for 4 months now), we are sharing a picture Lady took on her trip earlier this year.

Some day spring will come!

  11. That's a beautiful bloom!!! We think Spring sprung a leak in our yard - no snow, it is so wet!!! Even all the wind we had didn't do much to dry it up.

    Happy weekend.
