Weekend rain and higher temperatures melting feet of snow left Rollins Savanna wet and fresh during our late afternoon walk yesterday.
The path was flooded near a stream crossing, but at less than an inch of water this was no problem to pass.
Red-winged Blackbirds were staking out grassland stalks. Konk-la-reeing continued even on icy marsh water.
Muskrats were muddy, and active in the warmer weather. Time for spring cleaning, I reckon.
We took a detour which ended up being totally flooded out. We decided not to pass here, as the water was at least 6 inches deep and the flooding continued further up the path, maybe even deeper.
A small herd of deer watched us as the sun started to set.
We even heard our FOY (first-of-year) Meadowlarks singing their hearts out. Yay spring!
