Got up this morning to a beautiful sunny day.... So nice that I fed and played hooky from shoveling poo just to put the dog in the car and drive around..... Spent about 3 hours just lazing around the county(??) and driving access roads..... We haven't had but about 3 nights of below freezing weather this year (season).... The woods from a distance already have that spring hew.... Fields of winter grain that is usually yellor are green along with some usually brown meadows. We don't have robins, but an all black bird that acts just like them.... A few stay all year but today I saw skads of them acting like spring (gathering).... And, passing a remote barn, I swear I saw a swallow.... Hazelnuts are budding and spring flowers are popping up.......
What does this do to farmers in seasonal climate??? If we get a freeze, I can see a year without nuts and fruit (apple trees are budding also).....
Could it mean a thin year next year for the gatherers/browsers????
On a positive note, no water in sight for 6 days and maybe dipping below freezing a couple nights.....
We usually wait til things freeze then put the horses on the pastures and worm them, haven't been able to yet......
