Number Four is at the Door….

…Be this an autumn or a spring

My wisdom loses way

One side of me the nuts are ripe

The other side is May

(from The Ones that Disappeared are Back by Emily Dickinson)

With our fourth Nor’easter, it’s now apparent that March does indeed intend to go out with a roar!  I’m not complaining, getting to sleep in as school was cancelled, leisurely drink coffee while enjoying spelt-blueberry pancakes, in no rush to be anywhere, is fine with me.

I’m not sure how the flowers and budding trees will feel about it, but it is what it is, so I decided to capture a few pictures and watch the progress as we have transitioned from morning sleet to now thick flakes, on this second day of spring.

The picture of the cardinal and finches below is blurred by the window panes, but they are a such a cute trio I had to include them…

The mourning doves are gathering seeds as the snow falls around them…

A strange sight to see snow on such vibrant pink….

Ferns, a fun hiding place for Gabby, seeing yet another snowfall…

Maybe this will be the last snowfall, who knows….but it’s all beautiful nature just the same.  A very happy day to you all, whatever your weather may be!

Until next time!

    1. Thanks Donna…. I have to say we actually haven’t had the snow they got north of us, mostly higher tides and downed trees, feel like we’ve been spared the worst!

  1. There is magic in the interplay of winter snow and spring blossoms. Whatever the plants feel, clearly the squirrel and birds are too busy food hunting to be bothered by any dustings. Beautiful captures.
