April has arrived and most of the snow in our yard is gone.
We discovered that the moles have had a party this late winter. Snow melts and the dirt clumps appear! All over the yard are mole tunnels and dirt mounds. The mice were busy too! Cute little mouse nest.
Finally I spotted a robin hopping around yesterday. I love robins. During the summer, when I'm busy weeding in the garden, picnicking with the kids, or just sitting and reading a book, there always seems be a robin hopping around nearby. I love the peep-peeping. As a family, we keep an eye on the nearby Nest full of gorgeous blue eggs. We name each of the hatchling, have a funeral and burial when we find one dead. Poor birdies...I even made a shrine to honor the little guys. For all the little hatchlings.

The moles and other critters have left all sorts of evidence under the snow- long paths and lots of dirt hills.
I liked your contents and would like to share your content at my blog EMAIL BOOKMARKING. Please do let me know.
awww, cute and sad. Who would have thought to have a memorial plate for all the little birdies? I look forward to more pics of your yard-work....:)
