It seems like no time at all between when you go out in the woods searching for those first signs of spring starting to appear, and then suddenly everything is lush and green and there is no doubt that winter is a thing of the past!
Wood Ducks are terribly shy, but I was able to get a few photos by being silent and not trying to approach too close.
Catkins on the willows.
And even a few spring wildflowers starting to bloom.
I was surprised to see this Mourning Cloak butterfly. It seems so early in the season.
But it's not too early for Ticks! Nasty things. Remember if you plan to be outdoors to use a good tick repellent!
