Somehow some people think this is a bad or difficult time. Can't see it myself!
I love this time of the year (renewal). Unfortunately, here in my neck of the woods we are still in the deepfreeze with lots of snow on the ground. I have a lonely robin who always shows up in March and I feed her/him cranberries and he/she is eating peanut butter out of a log feeder too. I feel dismal looking out at the horrible weather and then I look at that brave little robin.
