Well the field work has begun. With part of the burn behind us, we are now able to get out in the field and begin the laborous work of pruning small trees and plants that did not burn.
It is fun to watch the fields begin to become interesting to the birds of the sky. We have had a marsh hawk flying over the parts of the fields that have not been burned. Life is beginning to stir. I saw a spider crawling about and a sand piper in the harvest fields. Soon the queen bees will be looking for the best nests and the bells will be in full blossom.....sorry getting way ahead of myself. But as you can tell, spring is a long anticipated event here at the farm. Speaking of queen bees, can you find the bee in the blueberry blossoms? (This picture was taken last year, blossoms are just forming, but soon the fields will look like this.)
Well time to get to work,
Theresa
