Late Winter Jaunt

Still green: After a spell of below-average temperatures, spring may finally be emerging from hibernation.  The Christmas Ferns, mosses and American Hollies gave us a glimmer of green throughout the barren season.  As the snow fades into memory, they will soon be joined by the new growth of our other forest plants.

Beaver lodge: The beaver ponds are full once again.  They had dwindled to mere puddles when the smaller streams went dry.

Canada goose: It looks like a pair of Canada geese have selected this pond as a potential nesting site.
