The weather has been variable here. We got a good solid snow a few days ago, which is mostly melted off now. Seen at the birdfeeders this week: a large flock of sparrows, a flock of mourning doves, a flock of assorted blackbirds, multiple cardinals, a house finch, and two fox squirrels. Sedum, garlic chives, snowdrops, tulips, and other bulbs are sprouting. Some crocuses have flower buds showing. Winter aconite is starting to bloom.
