The poor birds returning for the summer can’t figure out what’s going on. I counted 14 cardinals, male and female; the largest number I’ve counted at one time. And hundreds of grackles, starlings, red wing blackbirds and cow birds descend from the sky every day!

My miniature donkeys, Samson and Delilah, are also waiting for spring … they have a lot of pent up energy!
I guess we’ll just have to keep marking off the days on the calendar and hope for an early spring!
