SPRING IS HERE AND MR. RABBIT IS BACK

Last Monday was the first official
 day
of spring and we'll take it!


Here in Columbia, Missouri, the Bradford
Pears bloomed about a week earlier than
last year!  They were beautiful all over
town about 2 weeks ago - 
it's just to bad the tree bares no pears.
These Forget Me Nots will be blooming soon:



Forsythia was another one
that that I have seen that came early
 Ours was quite modest because 
we gave it a severe haircut last year.




We have so many birds here now that
the backyard sounds like a birdfest!
I keep the feeders full to make
them happy.  Last Friday was the
first time I saw the bunnies on
the ground beneath the feeder
eating what the birds spill.

Mr. Rabbit is already eating
 things
in the yard - NOT good.




Missouri had a very mild winter and
at least one lady told me the bugs will
be bad because of that.




We have had about 3 days of rain -
yes - rain.  I know too much isn't good
and some are experiencing that but
we needed it.
