[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 685465, member: 14557"] Good Morning! We are having that magical day, when everything seems to have started to turn green over night. We have very little snow left, only on piles and very shadowy places or slopes giving to north. Coltsfoot have been flowering over a week already and at Saturday I saw the first hepaticas and yesterday we had that warm April rain, that always seems to make a grass turn green over one night. We did have some fresh snow last week, but it quickly melted and we had a turn to warmer weather and yesterday it was over 40 F though it was rainy. No ice left in sea or rivers and I think also lakes will be free in a week. Swans are making so much noise on the fields and bay next to our house that it is almost annoying and all the other birds are coming back home from their winter migrations too. I even saw wagtail this morning and one popular old saying we have claims that it will be less than month to summer when wagtails come back. Well, we will see, but it indeed seems that spring is two weeks early this year. It is very possible that spring work can be started in two weeks on fields and I guess it is a summer when you can start sowing. And at least I was able to rake over half of my lawn during the weekend, though the rest is still too wet, frozen or have snow, but I'm sure I will be able to finish next weekend. To quote Robert Orben: Spring is God's way of saying, 'One more time!' [/QUOTE]
