Spring, it feels to me, has finally arrived here at the Cabin. Things seemed to go from grey to green in a matter of a week around the Central Texas areaa. Here, we are well over a month into Spring,and the green is only now beginning the dominate the color of the landscape. Some of the oaks are beginning to leaf out, while on others the buds look just ready to pop open.

The deer have gotten a bit full of themselves. Over the last couple of weeks they’ve destroyed one bird feeder, and I have had to rearrange the remaining feeders. I had already hung all the feeders because they were emptying them in one night when left on the stumps. Even then, they weren’t up high enough. I caught a couple on the camera rearing up on their hind legs trying to get at the bird feed.
