| With the generous dew in the mornings this week, really helped with the lowering of fire danger. Grass has really taken off in growing. Trees have been budding at a steady pace and wild flowers are emerging. Lots of various species of birds flocking north and some rare for up north here are making appearances. Roads are good for travel and with the low wind we have had all week, great for high profile vehicles to travel through. Trails are open for travel. And finally, after an 11 day stretch, rain is supposed to fall later today. Have to say though after this winter, it sure was nice to see the sun for this many days in a row. |

| Fields are wet, vernal pools in the forest still relatively full.
Sugar maples are producing a higher abundance of samaras, which look like miniature curtains of Spanish moss from afar. Our bur oak will be producing flowers in profusion this year.
Wild cherry trees are in bloom, apple trees soon to follow. Queen bumblebees and wasps are taking full advantage!
Tent caterpillars are active. |
