Crazy Spring Weather

This has not been a nice Spring. We have had hot and cold weather. Right now it is cold. We have had so much wind and right now we have gusts to 25 mph. There has been so much rain too. My tulips are up and blooming and being beaten down by the winds and rain. The Goldfinch have returned and are hanging onto the feeders for dear life. Mama Robin has a nest in a curve of a rain gutter just across from me on the house next door and they will be fun to see when the chicks hatch. So far their nest is safe and hasn't blown away. I wonder how many birds have lost their nests this year due to the crazy Spring weather. At least we are not getting any of the snow they are getting out west. Sure glad of that.

Spring Rains

Spring rains are really coming at us this weekend. Sounds like many will be severe. Heard they had a bad tornado in North Carolina. They are expecting snow in many places in the west. The weather is really a mixture. Watching the weather channel. He is telling all about the severe storm watches. Looks like a really wet week next week.
