Georgie's View: Harbingers of Spring are Lurking
By Georgie Bright Kunkel
What a strange title for a column. But it is true that our weather has been unusually mild all year so far. Just this morning I saw my first chickadee flitting about in the bare limbs of the chestnut tree in my back yard. The mighty oak that finally shed enough leaves to fill the yard waste bin four times is now stark naked. Now I can see the nests that the crows love to build high up in that tree. The birdhouse that last spring housed a sparrow family is once again cleaned out and ready for this year’s nesting.
