Spring is advancing, slowly, here. Nighttime temps are still in the 30°s F, but there is plenty of plant activity in the yard!

Forsythia. We’ve had terrible luck growing these otherwise prolific shrubs until this last purchase a couple of years ago.

Daffodils (these are fenced off from the pup due to their toxicity).

Backyard. These have been slow to establish, and may or may not get netting this year.

Frontyard. I have cages for these three once they set fruit. The birds are less of a problem than the chippies.

A new gate I put in the backyard fence to make it easier to get the lawn tractor and cart behind the house.

Finally, the garden.

Planted in May, 2022, the newest asparagus bed is showing activity! That’s a deer hoof print nearby; the deer have finally decided they can jump the fence and explore here.

The daffodils are up here as well as the hyacinths. The trees are coming alive but it's still cold weird weather as well. Garden looks great.

I haven't seen a chipmunk in years around here. They used to be plentyful when I was younger.

What is a chippies? When I looked that word up I had a surprise. I'm sure that the meaning in the dictionary gave me was not what you were talking about. LOL
