First wildflowers of the season

Blog Tags: 

The last few days have been sunny and warm, nearly perfect spring weather. The first warblers have shown up soon to be followed by waves of their fellows. The leavesPurple Trillium are not yet out on the trees letting full sunlight onto the forest floor. The early wildflowers are taking advantage of their moment in the sun so to speak.

What a day!

Granted the fishing was slow (only a few little bass) but the day and setting were perfect I was on Alford Lake in Hope Alford Lakewithout a cloud in the sky, temperatures in the high sixties and a gentle west wind. Two pairs of loons a few wood ducks and an eagle overhead. It does not get any better than this; you all missed a nearly perfect day on the water today. I’m sure this is the first of many!

Green Grass

The rain of the last couple of days has made the grass green and with the warm sunny forecast for the next several I expect that we will be mowing lawns soon, The brook next to the house is running loudly this morning as a result of the rain. Time to get on the water on a regular basis. I plan to make an exploratory fishing trip tomorrow and Saturday. I’ll report my results here.
