I saw these fellas when I was coming out of Vitamin Cottage. I've noticed that the birds are singing and chirping a lot more, even with the recent snows. The geese are all over the place, flying back and forth, east and west. Signs of Spring!
I'm gardening in the dry brown of Boulder, Co. My garden helpers include a herd of deer that let me know which plants are wildlife resistant. We get blizzards, thunderstorms, hail, lightening, occasional tornados, drought, floods,& hurricane-force winds here so it's a challenge. Oh, and the soil is rocky.
