People hiking to Lost Creek this weekend might spot the green ferns that I saw last week. It seemed strange to see the patches of green plants growing in the snow covered ground.
The milkweed pods are mostly empty but a few still had a few seeds which hasn’t flown yet, although it would be hard to spot the white seed floss hairs that land on the snow.
Mother Nature played a very nasty trick for Halloween by covering the ground with that shite stuff. I rather had a nice treat of a warm sunny day but that didn’t happen.
Morning revealed a new white coating of snow and I saw some geese heading south again and I bet the flowers that started to bloom wish they waited a few more weeks before emerging during the false spring.
With the rain today, the snow drifts by the road corner melted some so that I don’t have to do the slow creep into the intersection to try to see around the high snow banks.
This cardinal wasn’t happy during the snow storm as the limb broke that I had the bird feeders tied to and not too much of the feeder was sticking out of the snow. He was able to get some seeds after the squirrels dug some of the snow away.
Mother Nature played a nasty April Fools’ Day prank as it dumped heavy wet snow overnight which made it look like winter instead spring and caused many people hours to shovel this morning.
