February 2017 ending

Looks like March will be coming in like a lamb in my neck of the woods. 



I wouldn't be surprised if it goes out like a lion.



It has cooled off a bit which I like.



Doesn't look like next week will have any extreme temperatures that would put the flowers to bed.



There are only a night or two with the forecast going below freezing.



Out of curiosity I looked at my shots from 2016.



The difference is we had an ice storm mid February in 2016 which was a factor for early buds.



We only had snow one time this winter and that was in January.



I am definitely enjoying the early early spring this year.



The main thing I hope doesn't happen is for the trees to leaf out too soon.



Years when trees have to start developing leaves twice in a year seems to be a factor in later produce such as pecans with my pecan tree.
