It seems that every day brings another new taste of spring. Last night, when I went out to attend to the horses just at sunset, I heard the first American Woodcock calling! The nasal “peent! peent!” of the male as he begins his display is unmistakable.
It’s not just us humans who have been glad to greet spring. In the afternoon, I found the little boys lying together, soaking up some rays, quietly enjoying the warm afternoon.
Louis and Teddy rarely lie down outside, but they seemed to have agreed that it was an excellent day to lie back and relax and celebrate the return of pleasant days.
