Evidence of spring probably arrives a little later in the season here in southeastern British Columbia than where many of you live! We had quite a lot of snow well into March, but there are always signs of spring, even so. The tree swallows are busy inspecting nesting boxes at our local wildlife center these days.

Congratulations to all.
Trudy says
Congratulations to the winners! Florida doesn’t participate in Spring, we’ve jumped to Summer already! We had severe thunderstorms Friday and yesterday, so at least we may not get drought conditions this year! Still waiting for some plants to put on leaves and flowers, though my dessert roses are blooming!
Valerie Comer says

We’re hovering a little cooler here as we head into spring. I don’t think we’ve cleared 20 yet, and it definitely won’t be today as it is cool and rainy today!
Valerie Comer says
They are the cheeriest sign of spring :)
Trixi says
Signs of spring run a little later here too on the Oregon coast, but I have seen daffodils, purple crocuses, budding cherry trees and lots of signs of green grass coming up. Even seen a few hummingbirds! :-) This is my favorite time of year.
We also have lots of swallows here, both barn and purple martins, but they don’t start showing up till a little later. They flit all over the place & make such a racket, lol! I love seeing God’s creation, don’t you?
Valerie Comer says
Here we’re in crocus season but before daffodils!
