Early Signs of Spring

[Canuck from Kansas]

Specializing Salmo trutta?

Big ones ...

But they also toss in a few Salvelinus fontinalis (native here in the Poconos) and Oncorhynchus mykiss

 

[Buzzy]

Glad you are not eating it...

Toxicoscordion venenosum...

If ever a plant name gave a strong clue about its attributes...it's this one.


Oplopanax horridus (Devils Club) is another...

No pix but the pair of osprey have returned to a light pole at a park not far from my house. They called out as they cruised over the neighborhood yesterday afternoon.

I’m not much of a birder but they are such cool birds

We're a weird and multi micro climate zones.



We have several things that are starting to show. This apple tree was grown from a seed, and it 3 years old and it looks like we will have blossoms!

 

[Shawn Seeger]

Spent part of today checking on the new hives... the girls are loving the early dandelions. And making more bees!

 

[Zak]

At least someone is using my old float tube.

Still early spring up in the foothills today, with lingering snow on the valley floor in places.



But we found (and smelled ) a nice sized Skunk Cabbage garden…



and a nice patch of Yellow Violets…



The western Lily of the Valley and the Creeping Dogwood were emerging as well, but no blossoms on them quite yet.
