Hello
This morning we saw a groundhog. For a
little while I was afraid it dash to its hole and dive in. Instead it seemed to
waddle closer to the hole only to stop at a bush that was growing along the
fence. It stretched up, pulled down a twig or branch, chopped it off, and proceeded
to start gnawing on the end. Could this be breakfast?
I was quite pleased to see this. For some
reason I thought groundhogs ate grubs or maybe even small rodents.
We also see many lilacs starting to
bloom as well as other beautiful flowering trees. It is quite refreshing to see
this things evolve. On our walk we also see the early spring flowers. Such nice
surprises of color!
The sun is coming around earlier and
staying later. For some reason I am also amazed by that even though it has
happened every year of my life. Now when we wake and open the curtains light
floods the room.
We walked at another park on Saturday.
While there we saw May apples as well as three other flowers that we could not identify.
Later we decided, after doing some research that one of them was a red
trillium. It was quite a deep color in both the flowers and the leaves. We also
spotted some raspberry bushes that we hope to remember to come back to when the
time is right to pick berries.
