No, no 19 inches of snow, more like 75* of sunshine! :) The apple tree is in full blossom, so I put the Hummingbird feeders out, even though have not seen one yet, but they usually are here no later than April 22nd plus or minus a day.

The Spotted Turtles in the pond appreciated getting some tan time and Shorty always enjoys being out and wanting me to throw the blue plastic coffee can lids (frisbees) for him to catch.

The little one (Cuddles) is doing fine, sure do grow slow, been weighing him/her every other month and just a small increase, but better than a decrease in weight. He/She eats mostly Banana and some tomato.

Today the Hen Turkey was here again for a bit, got a few decent shots, one is kind of cool, from 100 feet away got the turkey and one of the Spotted Turtles on the log in the same photo. 12x Optical zoom shot, gotta love that Canon!

Don,
Can I rent a room in your barn? Great place you have. I would love to have some place like that to live & hunt. Great pic's, also.
