March is a tough month in a few ways. The cold rainy days are dismal yet we watch outside with anticipation. Hoping to see that first crocus or daffodil to poke up out of the ground.
Yesterday I found earth worms on the porch, so the ground has had enough frost come out so the worms could come up!
The Robins were happy and full of song when I did chores, as were the other birds. The mushy part of the driveway was a bit firmer so there was that.
When hubby got ready for his morning nap, I told him that I was going to go out and look for raindrops. He chuckled and gave me that look.
"It's raining. There are your raindrops."
Me: "Yes, well, maybe I can see how good my water resistant coat and pants are!"
He made a comment about it being wet and cold and shook his head.
Charlie was all in on this. He keeps an eye on things when I'm down near the ground looking for interesting mosses. Of course he is surveying the area for killer chipmunks, or squirrels.
The briars looked like they were decorated with raindrops hanging on their thorny branches.
I thought it was neat that I could see the trees above them reflected in the water droplet.
I did some hunting around and found some bubbles in the creek. I shot this which wouldn't be possible on a sunny day.
A multiple selfie with me waving at the bubbles.
I was looking for some mosses on a log that I know hold tiny water droplets.
There was Squatch trying out his bark raft. He looked a bit wet!
Apparently it was time for his spring shower.
The rain started to get heavier so I decided to head home. My water resistant lined pants were getting pretty damp but I was still warm. My jacket was starting to take on a bit of moisture.
Charlie was soaked, but his heavy undercoat was warm and dry.
I hung up my wet things to dry and toweled off Charlie. We got back before hubby awakened and snuggled in on the couch with a book.
