A few Hepaticas are starting to lift their faces to the sun.
Despite being heavily browsed by winter-starved deer, Myrtle is managing to open a few flowers.
High overhead a Northern Harrier (AKA Marsh Hawk) worked its way north.
     A tiny (3/8 inch) pollen dusted bee posed for a picture, proving beyond any doubt that pollinators are finding work!

Half a dozen Mourning Cloak butterflies flitted along the roadsides near my house today.
