First day of meteorological spring

We had a whole flock of Redwings in our garden this morning. Drinking out of the pond. I have never seen them before. It was magical.

Ooh sorry tiggypiroit's a changeable date
.and this year it's definitely the 20th?

The lion is roaring tonight, so I hope the lamb comes along on cue.

In like lion out like a lamb ?

Cheer up, peeps! Gardeners World returns a week tomorrow.

[laughs like a drain emoticon]

Hollow laugh.
It has snowed ALL DAY here and I am sick of it and worried about my travel plans

It's getting very breezy here and bitterly cold . We seem to be well stocked with food and I am battening down the hatches until the better weather comes. The milkman is still delivering and we have our Breadmaker.

First day of spring is definitely the 21st March and I should know as it's my birthday !
My dad always tried to have the first lambs born then and sometimes they were.

Well the Spring equinox ,March 20th is what I class as the proper start of spring ????

Well thank you for those odds of wisdom whitewave.
As the wind is howling around the house and the milk is frozen in the bottles. Let's hope it will improve soon.

Today should be a happy day as Jan and Feb are gone but sadly no - hasn't cheered me up at all sneeze sneeze sneeze again!

My Scottish granny used to enjoy reciting
“Snow, snow beautiful snow
Slip on a lump and down you go!”

Nose are red
Fingers are blue
I've had enough winter
How about you?

I always thought 21March was the first day of Spring - seems a lot more plausible! ❄️☃️?❄️

Seems like a bad joke at the moment, does it not?
