Spring Thaw? Too Much to Hope For

Dawning Thursday morning. I was up at 6. I like to think rising then will help me adjust to the time change coming on March 9. 

I walked to the library that afternoon and you can see the piles of snow, the mud made by the gravel they coat our side streets with, and the puddles. 

Snowmobiles have had a good time this February. You can see their tracks on the trail. 

The north side of the house has the biggest mound of snow from the roof. Roof is all clear now. 

Below the driveway turn around spot with its piles. The snow is very slushy and deep as I found out from filling the bird feeders. 

I read that meteorological spring starts this weekend. 

I don’t think it will make much difference here in except for more light. 

Winter Here

Turkeys visit the field every day now.
