Hopefully things will settle down some now... :) NB>> Spring seems to finally be here... even though the weekend NB>> promises to be cool and possibly snow mixed with the rain... MK> It's been gorgeous here over the last week, no rain, +20C highs, MK> perfectly blue skies, etc. However just before the sun went down the MK> wind picked up and there was a hint of chill to it. Like you it also MK> is supposed to cool off this weekend, except not quite cool enough for MK> snow thank goodness, with a chance of showers. We've had a few (mostly sunny) days in the 80s, a taste of summer... today is in the 70s and there's supposedly a thunderstorm appoaching this afternoon... We did have a little snow mixed in with the rain last weekend, but that should be the last of it... 60s mostly for the next few days, they say... Definitely spring though... the flowering trees are in flower, the forsythia is in full bloom, the daffodils and tulips and hyacinths and other bulbs are also... ;) NB>> No quail here that I know of... that sounds like an interesting NB>> sight to see... :) MK> It is highly entertaining, especially with the hordes of chicks. Also MK> they've gotten used to me so as long as I keep a safe distance they MK> aren't spooked by me watching. One of the last times I saw them (no MK> chicks) I noticed they had a spotter in the pear tree and pointed it MK> out to the neighbour stating that is was as close to a partridge in a MK> pear tree as we will ever get. As far as I know there are no MK> partridges in this neck of the woods. None here, either... :) ttyl neb ....
