Our World Tuesday: February ending March beginning

I'm going to include a smattering of shots I've taken over the past 6 days in the triangle area of North Carolina where I live.

Spring is continuing along its early way in spite of the big temperature fluctuations.

There is a chance of snow early this week although I doubt it will amount to anything.

I feel like a broken record endlessly repeating myself but it's hard not to think about this bizarre winter which has been very mild and continues to have such huge temperature fluctuations.

I am trying to enjoy whatever each day brings as much as I can.

The shots above were taken on Tuesday in Durham, NC. The rest of the shots were taken in Raleigh, NC.

The birds are getting increasingly active and wake me up with their songs outside my window.

Some of my daffodils have been beat up pretty badly but even bowed I find them pretty.

I am grateful that in spite of how developed my part of the world has become it is still filled with lots of trees.

The carolina wren below was fun to watch hopping around on my deck wall.

The female cardinal was eating with her mouth open.

The squirrel arrived for the party.

Sunday began with and returned to gray skies but in between there was a few hours where it looked like streamers were tossed up in the air.

I think this kind of sky is fun to photograph and look at.

The American Robin was singing on a limb of one of my oak trees.

I think the little girl had spring fever. She was dancing in the street.
