Sign of Spring?

I was looking around my yard for any signs of spring Saturday when I noticed a "snow robin" perched in this tree. What do you think? Does your imagination allow you to see a little birdie popping its head up out of a nest atop the tree trunk but just hidden from view? At any rate, that was the best I could do for now. How about where you live? Have you seen signs of spring?

I've not really looked myself yet, to see if there are signs of spring, other than we are getting sunshine the last few days.

While I was snapping photos on Saturday, I took a cool sunshine photo I'm going to post on Wednesday for Window Wednesday. It's so good to see the sun again!

I'm currently at my daughter's in New Lenox, IL and they don't have much snow left. We are waiting on baby. She was due the 4th. : )

Hi Glenice,

I wondered what a now robin was, then I realized you were being funny! :-)

Spring is here in Seattle. My cherry tree, pieris, camelia and forsythia are all in bloom, the lilac and rhododendrons have big buds. I planted pansies on Saturday. No snow here all winter.

Pansies, really? Those are still a month-two months away for me. I don't know what a pieris is so I'll have to google that. No snow all winter. That is hard to imagine. For us in Illinois it would be like no sun in summer.
