It’s only 10 more days until the official first day of Spring!! Are you getting excited? Whoohoo, I am! It’s going to feel like winter and it’s supposed to snow this weekend, but Spring is really just around the corner! It’s time to take our annual walk around outside (bundle up if it’s cold where you are!) and look for hints of Spring. Here’s a few that I found today!
Look at the trees. Are they starting to get buds on them?
Violas are some pretty dainty, but really tough flowers and I found one blooming today!
The daffodil flowers are pushing their way up through the ground.
I can’t remember which flower this is at the moment, but, hey, it’s green and it’s growing! 🙂
This may look like a pile of old dried up leaves but look closely and you can see some green leaves growing down inside there! Can you spot any?
Some of our favorite birds are showing up at the bird feeders again! I counted 15 different kinds of birds here the other day. 🙂
Our dog, Rusty, found this chipmunk hole today. He’s on the lookout now for the occupants of that hole. 😉
Now it’s your turn! What signs of Spring can you find outside close to where you live? If you get some snow this week or weekend, don’t get discouraged because Spring is almost here!! 🙂
