We have a fox here in the woods. We saw it in the ditch a few days ago.
The ditches are turning green which here in Minnesota means that the deer are out grazing at the edges of the road at night and in the morning.
We are seeing some green in the trees.
See a hint of green through the trees?
Far Side
Yes! Green grass and deer chomping and racing across roads in the dark--lots of hitting deer with vehicles=springtime.
ReplyDeleteYour trees are just starting to green up and I think all of our trees are leafing out like crazy.
ReplyDeleteHow neat!
I've been so crazy busy, it is hard to keep up with everything happening at once here.
:)
I can't believe how far behind us you are. I need to move north!
ReplyDeleteWe have had fox at our place before -- saw one once digging into a pack rat pile of twigs. We had some junk cars hauled off earlier in the spring and I found a perfectly intact fox skull under one of the cars, but no other bones. Wondering where the rest of it went.
ReplyDeleteWe used to have a fox that lived in the ditch behind our house and raised several kits over the years. I probably haven't seen her in four or five years now so I suspect she is no longer with us.
ReplyDeleteFirst green of the spring is very welcome.
ReplyDeleteYes, it is lovely! Our horse chestnut is in leaf, as well as the lilacs.
ReplyDeleteA week ago our trees were just beginning to show that subtle green halo of new leaves, and now they are brilliant green. And the flowering trees, like the crab apple down the street, are in full bloom. Spring is showing up late here this year, but finally here.
ReplyDeleteThe Aspen by my kitchen window is leafed out, but none of the other trees in the neighborhood. The Aspen is probably warmed by the brick exterior.
ReplyDeleteI love it when everything turns green.
ReplyDeletelooks like you're greening up. Spring eventually comes...
ReplyDeleteFunny how when I see a fox I think Wow, when I see a coyote I think Ugh. Either way though, I'm always on the look out.
ReplyDeleteIt's exciting to watch the first greening in spring. especially when you have to wait so long for it.
ReplyDeleteSo Cute! I love Foxes. They keep the mice and vermin down. And are so playful when you get them in the right mood.
ReplyDeleteGlad you're seeing lots of green.
ReplyDeleteWe have foxes around here too.
I love foxes....I had one come to my front door once but I haven't see one since. The ground hog is back!
ReplyDeleteWe have little turtles crossing the road this time of year and there is definitely road kill...armadillos and possums.
The first green of spring is an exciting time. Spring has arrived for you, finally.
