Did March Come In Like a Lion or a Lamb?

Saturday, on the last day of February, it snowed. And it snowed some more. These deer in the field at sunset didn't seem to mind the snow. The snow continued until well after midnight. By Sunday morning, we had six inches of beautiful snow, covering the recently scarred earth around here, where many broken limbs still lie.

There were many hungry finches and other birds out there enjoying the sunflower seeds I pitched out the window. I usually fill the feeders, but in ice and snow, I stay in, and do some pitching. The birds don't seem to mind.

By mid morning, the sun came out in full force, and the six inches of snow began to melt.

By late afternoon, it only covered the grassy areas, like the field, where the deer were congregating again.

On Monday morning, some pink March clouds, looking like lambs, grazed in the blue sky.

Did March come in like a lion, since it snowed until well past midnight, or a lamb, since the sun shone brightly by mid-morning on Sunday, which was officially the first day of March?

So, will it be an early spring, or will we have six more weeks of winter? Time alone will tell.

I took all the pictures from my kitchen window, and the one of the deer in the field looks like it, doesn't it? lol.

Thank you for visiting.

Blessings from the woods!
