Good

Daffodils up with flower buds on 'em - flowers haven't opened but they are there

Some of mine are a inch or so tall, too soon for here

Same here, ones in the backyard are probably two inches up. Long range forecasts show very little cold days ahead...

Daffodils have begun blooming as have the Cherry Trees

At this rate I'm gonna have to start my yard work pretty soon. I don't want to start my yard work yet. I haven't finished my winter project work - still two bathrooms to do .

that's just wrong on so many levels..........

OK, it's now official, 4 drake Goldeneye ducks out in back, that means I'll be working in the yard in 4-5 weeks.

I cleaned out my gardens yesterday, washed and will polish the truck today. I am sure it will snow again on March 7 for the Ward Melville show, but that's about it for this winter...

also bees be a buzzin' & flies be a flyin'

Chesapeake seems to be "waking up" as well.....................

On my way back from Richmond yesterday, as I was crossing the CBBT there where a couple of acres of fish busting on top with birds diving into the midst of them. Couldn't tell what was feeding or what was being fed upon.

I'm hoping this past few days are the end of freezing weather. I have tulips, daffodils, crocus and my iris' are all up. Tulip and daffodil around 6 inches already. Hope no hard freeze.
