Winter is becoming spring

 

Spring catkins are busting out all over...  

Here's a quick little video of a moment this past Saturday afternoon 

at the creek crossing where my daily walk about begins.

Serenaded by the red winged blackbirds.

 

 and some pics along the way.  Glorious sunny days.

'Our' coyote family

March 17th ~ our resident family of coyotes came out together on a weekend hunt.

They are fairly distant in these pics ~ down the other end of our hay fields ~ but they were quite obviously having some success.  They look very healthy which is great ~ it must have been a good winter for them.

 

   

 

Many mornings in the wee hours  ~ on the cold air ~ we hear them calling to each other.
