March - In Like a Lamb, Out Like a Lion!?



Isn't this the reverse of what it's supposed to be like?

Faeries Friday - Summoning Chant

Faerie Summoning Chant


Come out from your fairy bower,

Come upon this golden hour,

Come to us we beg you please,

Fairies dancing on the breeze.

I don't know if I'd ever be brave enough to summon Faeries, I would be afraid of offending them! I was watching the movie 'Fairy Tale, A True Story' and this chant is used by the two little girls. It's one of my favorite movies. If you haven't grown up so much that your inner child has died, and you haven't seen this movie, give it a try. Although, I can't imagine anyone whose inner child is alive and well hasn't already seen this movie....

Odd Ducks

I had stopped by Lake Gregory last week to see how Spring was coming along down at that elevation. Better than up here, but not by much.

Then I noticed the ducks looked a bit different. When I first glanced at them I thought they were just swimming around like they usually do. But then I noticed they were swimming in circles, and something even more odd...

They ALL had their beaks down in the water! I've never seen ducks do this before. It was so strange. I'm guessing that maybe some sort of bug had just hatched and was floating on the surface of the water, but I couldn't see anything. I drove slowly around the lake and every duck was doing the same thing.

Maybe they had the duck version of Spring Fever?

Harbingers

I spotted this little guy (girl?) sitting in the sun on a branch of the Box Elder tree. I think this might be the earliest I've seen a Robin, but I can't remember for sure. But, Robins are always a welcome sight!

The new branches on the deciduous trees are greening up, and the tulip and daffodil shoots are taller than I've ever seen them at this time of year.

Though we've hardly had any winter I guess Spring must really be on her way.
