4" of snow Sat morning, and loads of Robins out today. I always love seeing the first Robins after winter. Before downsizing to an apartment from our house of 20 years, Robins were the first sign that spring was close.
Is spring here?

Another sign that spring is close....
I'm gonna have to mow in spots tomorrow.
I'm thinking about putting out the hummingbird feeders pretty quick.

I usually love the short winters we get in north Florida. In fact, I revel in them. But it's been so gray and miserable for months I am 100% ready for spring.
I love Spring with Winter in the rear view mirror for a long time. Ordered some fruity scented shave soap this week to get ready.
As much as I'm enjoying the 5 to 15C highs this winter in Calgary, it's going to slay the farmers this year, and the wildfires will be insane.
We haven't been getting enough snow pack in the mountains the past few years that runs off in spring.

NC here, it has been a very mild winter. Supposed to hit upper 60's F the end of this week and be 70F by the middle of next week.
N.Ireland/Ireland here.
Wet and windy.
It's just the name of the months change here, not the weather.

As long as the Junco's are still here I consider it winter. We have a very active bird feeder in the back and see all kind of birds. Haven't seen a robin yet.
It's been a great winter in NY (nice to get some benefit from global warming) but it sure ain't spring yet. We were in the teens for temps this AM. Lots of rain this winter, which is fine with me as I don't shovel rain.
The humidity would kill me. In my city, humidity is normally <20%. I turned on the humidifier in our house yesterday since we were down to 15%.UK here........ As you know us brits have absolutely no interest whatsoever in the weather

I was in Toronto a couple of springs ago and 20C with a lot of humidity felt like winter, I was literally shaking!

I had a bird feeder at our house for a couple of years. I saw many birds I rarely saw before or since. We love visiting my sister-in-law in Kentucky. Her husband has several feeders, seed and suet, and there are always Cardinals at their feeder.
We have a pair of Cardinals every year here, plus all kind of other birds, and even a variety of woodpeckers. Got an app for the phone to determine what bird it is.
Cornelliancherry dogwood in bloom and bluebirds checking out nest boxes. About 50 growing degree days here. Tracking plant development every year can be an interesting way to see if things are moving early or late.

Cardinals and Robins are getting busy here in Pennsylvania.
I really hope not. I live in Southeastern Ma and miss the winters we used to have. Holding out that we may get one real snow storm before spring arrives. So far the best one we have got this winter is 2-3 inches of wet slushy snow. Were did the ocean effect storms go. This was the last real winter I remember, 2015. If you look in the first pic, you can see the top of the chute on an 28" snowblower. The second is of my parents neighbors house across the street from them. I miss real New England winters.
55 - 60 earlier this week, but enough snow today to stick.
Can't complain too much if you get 60 degrees in February.

Denver(ish) A nice week. Sneaking into the 60's but snow showers yesterday. Looks to be warming up but then Mother Nature will smack us with 3 feet of snow in March or early April just to remind us who's in charge.
