Hello and happy Monday!
Is it just me, March is marching right along. We have had some kind of precipitation, rain, snow and the icky mix all winter. Last year was a record year for rainfall. I think it was 72 inches recorded at BWI airport, some areas had more like 80 inches. 2018 was the wettest year since 2003. It seems like 2019 got off to a wet start too, very cold too. These are some images from around my yard, mostly taken in late February and some early March.
Various shots of our deck, I was shoveling the snow off the deck every couple of days. It wasn't deep snow, just a couple of inches or so.
The view around my yard and deck. Our nice neighbor helped us by plowing our driveway on this day, After the snow stopped, we started seeing some pretty blue sky, the trees in the yard and in the woods next to our place were covered with snow. The last photo is taken from my window looking at the driveway and into the forest.
On March 9th, I saw my first Great Blue Heron landing in the tallest pine trees in the photo below. There has been a Heron rookery in these trees for the last 8-10 years. I guess this heron sighting is a sign spring is coming soon to our neighborhood.
The sky is clearing after a snow storm March 4th.
The moon or February Super Moon taken from my deck on Feb 19th.
We had a cloudy day and night during the February Super Moon.
The male cardinal has taken over the job (from the Screech Owl) of banging into my den window. Crazy bird, I have decals all over the window, it does not help.
I enjoy watching the birds out my dining room window. The cardinals spook easily, so I do not go too close to the window.
Thanks for your visit today! I hope you enjoyed my post and photos.
