Went to the SW Gate Wednesday evening towards sunset. The Woods were dry. After a good wet February we've had almost zero rain for March. The paths in the Woods are hard, the soil is dry to the point that is has lost its resilience. Hoping for rain.
I spotted a herd of ten deer. The indian plum is blooming but seems a little sparse. They may not have recovered from last year's heat and drought. The amur honeysuckle is well-leafed out. Now is a good time to cut and remove.. new growth being produced. This has been a serious invasive problem in midwest.
Lots of small to medium sized branches down from the days of dry winds over the past fortnight.
Spring here, as of late March, is cool, late and dry. Heard the barred owl calling in the central Woods.
