Highlights: “Snow
is melting fast but we still have some 2 foot drifts. First
territorial
song heard today by a robin along with the first territorial
cardinal call. First snowdrops bloomed today as well. Overcast,
but 58 degrees. Spring truly is at our doorstep at long last!” From
Bridgeport, VT 03/27/07
