April NEWs…

All new by spring’s morning light…

P1140348I slipped into my gum boots for a tromp out back to check on the skunk cabbage–sure harbinger of bears to come.

 P1140350And on the way I got caught up on all the latest NEWs…

The willow’s coming out of mourning.

P1140357

Rhubarb is emerging, crinkly new, rousing hopes of mouth-watering desserts to come…

 P1140361

The bushy willows further back are bearing pussies…

P1140363

And the huckleberries have put on their dainties.

P1140373

P1140370macro

And yes, the skunk cabbage is up,

wafting it’s malodorous wake-up call to all the ursidae family far and near.

P1140367

We’re sure to have bears before long…
