The birds have certainly indicated that spring should be here. Their song has been filling the air for at least the past week. Yesterday, a couple of smaller birds made several attempts to fly through one of our windows (thankfully, not with the heart-rending thump of head meeting glass, but rather the fluttering scratches of wings on the windows).
Next week sees the beginning of track season up here. While I still regret that I cannot be a part of it this year due to scheduling conflicts, I am still looking at the snow-covered track with a coach's eye. Already, I've made suggestions to the new hurdle coach for indoor activities he can use to get the students in the right mindset. Running hurdles is certainly better when the snow clears.
I am ready for spring.
