Waiting…

Mostly it’s quiet here as I wait for signs of Spring…

but there’s been Red-Wings and Grackles the last few days…

(still no Phoebe or Plover)

but I’ve not been properly out, yet…

(soon!)

Winter ducks seem mostly gone from the places I know…

Instead there’s this:

It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold: when it is summer in the light, and winter in the shade. ~Charles Dickens

There were a couple minutes at lunch when I closed my eyes and imagined it July. That felt nice (and especially warm!)

I’m still waiting for a day to inspire Spring-fever in me…

  1. Spring will be here in a flash – maybe, hopefully and then it will get hot and we will be looking for what we have now. Birds are on their way.

  2. I like your Dickens quote. I was walking about downtown over the weekend and when I was in the sun it was wonderful; when I was in the shade of the buildings, it was still winter.

  3. Nice Dickens quote, and it’s definitely like that here in State College PA, as Donna indicated. We’ve had nothing but beautiful sunny days since I got back–I brought the spring with me from Texas!

  4. It’s what my daughter said to me yesterday when she came home from school (while I was cutting everything back and doing way too much in the garden). Warm in the sun, cold in the shade.
