Pleasant spring weather for a special time of the year when the woods and forest come back to life after the long winter. Total rainfall this week around .12″. Woods starting to come vibrant after warmer temps moving in. The first wildflowers and greenery sprouting from the forest floor. Leaves are the trees budding and slowly beginning the process to come full circle. More birds migrating in and fun to see scarlet tanagers in the forest recently. We have been clearing on the trails and also planting trees for spring trail work.
