   Sounds lovely and refreshing! Warmed me up inside despite the temps still being quite numbing here. 🙂

   Thanks, and you are very welcomed! Today I saw a pair of Eastern Bluebirds out the kitchen window, both had lovely strands of dried grass in their mouths. Even they think it’s Springtime! Birds all over have been twittering more and more each day for the last few weeks, and it’s outragious sounding now in the morning, and at other times of the day, and sunset. The birdies are all nesting and getting ready to nest. I looked in the Nestbox I have on the deck, which needs to be installed again, it’s just sitting there (since the horrid things within the box the other year) and inspite of that, the Bluebirds have build a fine nest.

   We got a pole to install it on tonight, I’ll get it up tomorrow. Then I will hope for a good season of young Bluebirds once again.

   All in all it’s nice that Spring is here, but it is a bit early, very early in many ways, and it’s not a “sure thing” that a harsh storm won’t push through still, but all of nature is saying “it’s here!”.

   But that just all means that there is more pollen around that ever and it’s gonna get TOO hot too soon, so give me your cold when THAT happens PLEASE! 🙂
