Enough Winter! Signs of Spring . . .

Rub it in! :laugh -5F actual temp. expected tonight.

Pretty picture, though. Thanks for posting!
 
mmmmmm, west texas. voni, i'm headed that way at the end of march for a weekend of riding and hiking in big bend. weather should be perfect by then, with plenty of flowers. have you had rain this winter?
 
Nice pic!! We are having a lot of much needed rain here!! Although bad for business, it is good we get the wet stuff now as the Everglades are really dry.
 
We're pretty much where we should be for rainfall this season and we're in a nice dry stretch. The roads are slowly drying and the wildflowers are up in a big way. Mustard's usually first, from what I can see, but the magnolias and acacia trees are out, too. When the cherry trees start blossoming, I know true spring isn't far behind.

For us, spring is when it stops raining for the next 6 months. :ha

And great shot, Voni. :thumb
 
Springtime in north Texas

Definitely should be great weather then. What fun you'll have!

We've had one day of snow and one day of all day light drizzle soaking in the ground. Other than that, it's been dry. But there was lots of rain in the summer and early fall. I'd expect gorgeous blooms!!

I'm loving the pictures. Keep them coming!

First real harbinger of spring - the Red Winged Black Bird. When this bird arrives unhook all the battery tenders.
 
After a few good days of rain, the perpetually brown hills outside Woody and Glenville are blanketed in green. It won't last long, but it sure is beautiful now.

Taken 2/13/2008. I hope this robin is a harbinger of spring.

this one calls for a caption contest. the bird is surrounded by tasty berries, but can't get at them!

great photo paul. my heart goes out to all you folks getting iced in. those storms are a real mixed blessing. they are beautiful, but leave quite a mess to clean up if they rip down a lot of trees.
