Is It Really Spring?


Mindy, reporting today's post.
Take a look at this photo of my backyard -
 

 


All this snow happened on Sunday - April 8.  Yikes, where did all this snow come from?  I had to ask mom to double check the calendar.  I did not get the date wrong!
 
Here it is Thursday.  Except for some very shady places, there is no snow now.  This is good, because I am ready to enjoy watching the spring birds coming to our feeder from my favorite windowsill.
 
 


Also I am happy to see the squirrel pop out from under the evergreen trees and gather sunflower seeds under the feeder.  Mombean always scatters some of these seeds on the ground for the squirrel and the pheasants.
 
 


Oh, mom, caught me washing my face!
 
 
 
OK, mombean, make yourself useful, and give me a belly rub!
This is my belly rub  pose.
 
 


Time for a snooze.  However, I can nap and keep ears and eyes on standby, just in case something needs my attention....you never know, I sure don't want to miss anything that happens and I choose my napping spot carefully.

Closing my eyes now, talk again soon.

that snow needs to know that it is not welcome. I am glad it has nearly gone and hope that is the end of it. I hope you got your belly rubs.

We hope your snow is gone for good! We're bracing for two messy days, including a significant freezing rain accumulation. Stupid, ridiculous weather for mid-April, and like nothing our biped has seen in her 22 years here. Pfffftttt!

Anyway, enjoy your weekend and we hope you have awesome kitty TV programs to watch!

We're supposed to get 12 inches of snow tonight and tomorrow. The boyz will likely be hearing some naughty words...

Good to hear your snow is gone. Before warm weather comes to stay, you have the best idea - Napping!

We are happy that the snow is pretty much gone too.
Good to see you enjoying life and sunbeams when you find them. Not too many in the near future though.
Happy Friday the 13th !
