1904_0973 Western Meadowlark
Despite the fact that several inches of snow fell yesterday, I know spring is here: the meadowlarks have arrived. When you can find a crocus-dotted slope and hear the song of a Western Meadowlark from the grass - or a fence post - that seals the deal. Forget about the horizontal, lashing snow we received yesterday; forget about zero visibility on the roads. That will pass. In fact, this morning it has passed, and the sun is shining, the snow is melting. Spring is here!
