Yes, first robin today, looking for worms! It's downhill from here as far as spring, eh? A song sparrow in the birdbath, and more snowdrops and tiny crocuses popping up everywhere. Also, a beautiful day, 55 degrees, and blue skies! I need to get out there and pry up the pasted-down leaves, prune some dead wood, and plant the new lily-of-the-valley pips.
Note for the future...even those shrubs that were horizontal and under heavy snow since the Christmas blizzard more than two months ago, and have just now sprung free, appear to be [generally speaking] OK. One or two of them have some broken limbs, which will need working on, but the merely bent-over shrubs will recover. Whew.
