The forsythia are blooming. All over the area. A mile away a neighbor has a bush that must be an hundred yards long. It goes around part of his property. Every year when the flowers bloom we marvel at his display. It goes in and out on my side of his property. It is the longest stretch of forsythia I have ever seen. He keeps it well trimmed. The flowers are now blooming everywhere. Another person in town made a beautiful arrangement by planting pine trees between each bush. They only bloom for a short time but we enjoy other people’s flowers.

Spring is a day away although it feels like it had arrived early. By now the daffodils are blooming everywhere. The crocus are done. Forsythia are also blooming. The deciduous trees all have buds. I have already dug out my shorts. There were some days that warranted them. For a few weeks now it has been in the sixties and seventies. I have even wore my tee shirts although not every day was warm enough to do that. In a few weeks I will put out hummingbird nectar. I am shooting for April 1 to do that although I usually do not see them until the end of April. With the warmer weather maybe they will come sooner. We will see.
