Early frost – no pumpkins- fending off the potential warmth of April with gray skies, crispy winds, ice topped buckets, hard ground  echoing a louder volume to hoofbeats and birdsong alike, minimum heating in the greenhouse due to lack of sunshine but the woodstove crackles and the large black dog in my lap more than makes up for that!

A  white sunrise surprise, deeply dark gray clouds rushing off towards the South and revealing blue above, tulip and iris spearing up through icy snow cover that buried the jonquils attempt at joy, a pair of ravens grace us with flights through the field and magical calls unlike any others, sun rising strong to melt away cold yet winds bring it back with a chill, red of cardinal and distinct green in the grass offer cheers of stubborn spring while peepers silently await a reprieve.

At it again, Rev wanting what Lancer has as Isaboo ignores the game, temps caress the soul this fine morning with gentle sun on softly wafting breezes, crazy frogs clacking, peepers singing in rhythms of ancient ways, a comforting day with news of a victory, still worry seems always to find a hold and life remains bittersweet, to balance its nature.

Heavy dew/frost covered the backlit tree branches with diamonds and prisms as the welcome sun rose and transformed them to mist disappearing in the morning, chickens cleaning gardens, manure still protecting ice underneath on the North side of the barn, a gleeful romp digs divots in drying soil as another beauty day revives the spirit.

Wonderfully warm temps, the otherwise barren lilac budding with junco blossoms sweetly nestling, sun making some limited appearances and waking forgotten sensations, mostly cloudy, mild with gentle wind, soothing air bringing glorious Spring to our door.

Bright and bountiful, beautiful and blue welcome to the sunny morning, egg found in the horses hay, frosty freeze falling overnight, layer of ice to break in the buckets, evidence of hoof prints frozen from yesterday, warm rays reaching for shedding backs and waking the world from its winter slumber.

Rain has lifted along with misting snow piles returning moisture to gray skies, hints of tints of green suggested in the lawn, old fallen leaves escaping winter’s hold scuttle across the field, with no real grass to eat the horses pretend snuffling muzzles in mud and rehearse munching on imagined tall lush grasses soon to come.

Gentle temps greeting mammals and birds, songs forgotten have returned as the pair of cowbirds are back, the robins serenade, blue jays drowned out by the persistent cardinal, cats enjoy being outside and prowling (Morris from next door just strolled by), Rev put the chickens away this morning for practice, horses are now released from the corner and Isaboo is nibbling along exploring  her vast new territory as Lancer finds old crab apples and blown away hay.

Interested parties looking for that break in the clouds, where did it go? Chickens scratching up leaves and garden refuse searching for bugs and worms, a slight tinge of green showing randomly in the lawn, birds returned singing familiar songs, wind a bit cruel contributing a chill, geese honk and woof the air flying to the lake as April settles in.

Running under muted sunshine, racing ahead of clouds, mildish day shaping up after a chilly overnight complete with a light frost, shadows crisp as Rev joins the fun – distracting him from practicing chicken rustling which was extremely successful yesterday afternoon, intense coat shedding, rolling to leave mats of horse fur on the brown ground, hoping to see green creep back into the landscape now that most of the snow is gone.
