Comments: Signs of spring abounded this weekend! Today my girlfriend Becky and I noticed blooming Forsythia and snowdrop, as well as sprouting daffodils, crocus, and what appeared to be Grape Hyacinth. Robins are on the move, and there was a great deal of bird song today: Northern Cardinal, Tufted Titmouse, Carolina Chickadee, White-breasted Nuthatch, Song Sparrow, Carolina Wren, and American Robin. Yesterday, my friends Jim and Martin and I saw at least 8 Woodchucks out and about in Pennsylvania.
