Spring Comes To The Great White North!

The wind is still blowing cold off Lake Superior, and there are yet piles of snow in the shady places. But the snowdrops are blooming! These brave little flowers are happily nodding their little heads on our compost pile.

My husband noticed them. They’re one of his favorite flowers, so he was thrilled to see them. They’re a complete surprise; we didn’t even know they were there.

I saw a couple of robins the last day of March. Haven’t seen them since, so maybe they gave up and went back south!
