Trillium

 It's been a while sorry, but here are a couple Trillium found on the trail

Spring ... probably

 The first flower a Coltsfoot.  Very surprising given the weather.  It was about 60°F today

When I went to take the Coltsfoot the ground moved ... a Gartersnake was a real surprise.

A bunch of unusual birds as they past by

 Snow geese in a corn field.  Not normal in our fields but usually several miles east.

 The first Skunk cabbage about a month late

 The Hooded Merganser with the big head looks a bit miffed at the other guy attracting the female

 The big "do"

 The female fluffing up

 No water on the lake yet.

 A Snow goose swims past the sleeping Red heads

A Buffelhead and more resting RedHeads

Birds in what should be spring ...

 The Robin is looking for his travel agent in 19°F weather

These ducks are stopping thinking they have arrived at the arctic. Ring-necked ducks, Redhead and Buffel Head (left to right)

The Swains are still on the creek

 Maybe they will stay.
