I love your attitude toward winter ~ I need to revisit often, maybe it will be contagious! You do have some beautiful photos of all the snow you've been getting. What a winter! We've had it here too ~ although not so much snow as cold, cold, cold.<br />I planted snowdrops for the first time last fall and now they're blooming here too. I'm so glad I did ~ those early blooms are really helping me think spring is coming. <br />I enjoyed all your bird photos too except maybe that sparrowhawk! I've had one and a sharp-shinned hawk eating from my garden all winter. I know it's the way of nature but I guess I prefer not to see it unfold in front of me. <br />Happy March to you ~ soon the tadpoles will be back, right?Kathleenhttp://kaseyskorner.typepad.com/kaseys_kornernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8436251929191150062.post-72185148636141855902010-03-05T05:56:05.813+00:002010-03-05T05:56:05.813+00:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.willsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11996281370850910184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8436251929191150062.post-83431881867479050622010-03-03T11:39:33.782+00:002010-03-03T11:39:33.782+00:00* Welcome to our little corner of paradise on this...* Welcome to our little corner of paradise on this chilly March morning, dear Sherry :)<br /><br />We have shared a snowy Winter with lots of hungry birds to lift our souls... :)A wildlife gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08261817184002496844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8436251929191150062.post-63265678608506585592010-03-03T02:38:52.042+00:002010-03-03T02:38:52.042+00:00Happy March!
