In Like a Lion

Hello March.

Tis a lovely month, filled with daffodils, hyacinths and snowbells.

A Glimpse of Spring in the Snow
Daffodils and Grape Hyacinths Meander Down the Walk

March is a fickle month here in the Pacific Northwest. We'll get gorgeous sun one day, then heavy rain with winds to blow out the winter and sometimes even a snowflake or two the next day. There's always a few rainbows in the mix. This year, March is starting with a "Pineapple Express." We're having heavy downpours of rain and blustery wind all week.  However, the daffodils dance and hold their heads high as if they know spring is only three short weeks away! 
The birds have started looking for nesting sites. There is one surveying the overhang outside my studio right now as I tap the keys on my computer. The purple finch hops from one porch rafter to another.

The purple finch has a beautiful song. We're lucky to have many come to our feeder and nest around around the property.
I love early spring rains!

I hope that you are staying cozy during these last days of winter, and that you're looking forward to a beautiful spring!
