The robins came home a few weeks ago, and it seems like the geese have all left for the North. No peepers or much birdsong yet. We do have daffodils, redbuds, and pink almond blooming, but the trees are mostly bare still. It seems like we usually go from brown to green overnight in Arkansas.
Our first indicator of Spring on the horizon is a pungent one. The skunks come out of hibernation.
The earth is wet from rain and flooding, so it smells a little musty yet. Soon the Farmer will till the land and the smell of earth will permeate the air.
