Greening of the greasewood

26 03 2024

Spring is here. Here’s the proof in the budding greasewood. ๐Ÿ™‚

I’m always happy when I see the greasewood budding again. It’s a good source of protein that the mustangs eat like ice cream. I equate it with warming weather, shedding coats and plumping ponies.

The fat little buds of spring!โ€‚It’s so encouraging to see those signs of life again.โ€‚One of the first things I notice here are swelling buds on the cottonwoods, and it’s beginning!โ€‚Harbingers of a new season. ๐Ÿ˜€

The buds were poking out here too but then we got some really cold days – hope my flowers didnt get frosted.โ€‚The robins got here just before the last cold spell.โ€‚They always look so darned confused standing around in the snow!โ€‚Its warmed back up again – supposed to rain later today.

We were below freezing this morning – and had more snow. I can just picture your robins in the snow. ๐Ÿ™‚

Though we need more moisture (always), I can’t help but be excited for spring. ๐Ÿ™‚

Ha – I love that – the phrase, if not the resistance. ๐Ÿ™‚ I heard that southeastern Colorado got 8 inches of snow a couple of days ago! Resistance, for sure.

We got a lot of snow here in the valley. It didn’t last long, but maybe it was 8 inches.
