Yes, the snow is coming down and the winds are howling, but I am undaunted. There ARE signs of spring!
-
There were new birds at the feeder off the deck this morning – a pair of carolina wrens.
-
Earlier this week, a nuthatch made a visit to the suet feeder.
-
Three robins were sighted on a nearby lawn. (wondering if they are regretting that journey to the East at this very moment???)
-
The bay leaf plant, at home in the master bedroom for the winter, has sprouted some new growth and buds.
-
The Meyer Lemon, in like manner, delights with new buds and an alluring fragrance from its pretty blossoms. Two baby lemons have begun to emerge. Great plant!
I do have to admit to a bit of jealousy, however, when I was looking at some blogs earlier today, and came across thepaperseed, which had also written about signs of spring – see what the emerging spring looks like in Portland, OR. Hopefully, we’re not too far behind!
Enjoy your weekend, thinking Spring….

Thanks for stopping by, Karen! Yes, spring has begun in our area, but we’re still in for months of mostly grey, rainy weather. I love your Meyer Lemon photos. I have always wanted one.
