Along The River - Sandhill Cranes

Two weeks ago we had snow and temperatures in the minus 20's (-4F).
 
Yesterday, it was sunny and warm, a balmy 20 degrees. (that's 68F).
A perfect day for a trip to The Pinery Provincial Park.
 
Walking along the Ausable River Trail, we saw the usual Canada Geese starting to nest.
 
 
Just as I was telling Hubbers there probably wasn't much more to see, I spotted this pair across the river.

 
 Sandhill Cranes

 
Yep, I was pretty excited, another "first" for me.

Just Around The Corner

Spring has been delayed,
but the temperature is warming and the rain is starting.

It's Spring You Say?

 
Shades of black, grey and brown . That's spring in my world today. It's minus 5 outside, with about 4 inches of snow on the ground.
