Spring Slowly Coming Our Way






Out and about yesterday. As the sun warmed our spirits we began to see some signs of spring. The light playing with shadows on the trees. The budding of catkins on the willow branches. The ice slowly melting on Muskegon Lake. Of course the returning waterfowl swimming, diving, and honking. The red winged blackbirds are back. Robins seem to be hopping everywhere.  I found a blog site for birders - Muskegon County Nature Club - just search for them on the web. They offer a lot of information.

I am including a few photos from trip out yesterday, hope you enjoy them.














The sun was warm and created interesting shows on the trees

Light bouncing everywhere

Will keep my eyes open to the changes here in the next month
