Well crap, I don't know why that's an "age restricted video".

Always told that February is when they come out and is the start of breeding season. ??

I saw two morning doves on different house ridges calling to their mates, and 4 sets of geese paired up and looking to nest.

Sandhill cranes are flying north in decent numbers

Skunks don't hibernate. The only true warm-blooded hibernators in Indiana:
Bats
Groundhogs
Thirteen-lined ground squirrels
Meadow and woodland jumping mice.

Haven’t heard them yet but the spring peepers are soon to come. Taking grandkids to the woods and pond today to check things out..
Soon we are cutting buckeye trees.. first to emerge in early spring. Have way too many in the woods.

Our frozen daffodils are looking better than they did a few days. Grass is starting to get a little more green. Haven't seen any trees starting to bud but if the temps hold I'd say that could happen very soon. And our bucks have finally dropped their antlers!

Sandhill cranes are flying north in decent numbers

That’s typically when I gather any hope that spring is around the bend.

I was out all day with the grandkids.. multiple flocks of Sandhills.. then we saw redwing blackbirds, grackles and the Horses are losing their winter coat too. I know it’s early but still encouraging.
Grandkids helped pick up sticks to make a fire so we could cook hot dogs and they rode their bikes and went home exhausted.. it was a beautiful day

 

[El Conquistador]

was at the store today and they are putting out the grills and gardening supplies. Spring is just around the corner.

Must be spring. The bats aren't hibernating anymore. Just spent the last 30mins chasing a bat out of my basement. Just finished doing some ammo count and reorganizing. Sat down to read a few things I had found and a bat starts flying around my basement. That's something I won't soon forget. Felt like Dan Aykroyd or Jon Candy there for a few. Still not sure where it came from as its a sealed, half finished basement. I just hope there isnt anymore... Crazy !
