March wind

Apparently the weather didn't get the notice about leap year because the wind today definitely was "coming in like a lion."  It grounded a lot of birds, but not the woodpeckers.  I think I glimpsed a red belly but mainly it was pileated woodpeckers with the occasional downy.  The sky was mostly gray with a couple flickers of sun. 

Three varieties of daffodil were blooming, the early yellow ones, the dwarf yellows, and now the pale cream with yellow centers.  And I think I saw a bud on the fried eggs.  The Carolina jessamine has been confused by the up and down temperatures (way up today) and was just beginning cautiously to flower.  The sassanqua camellia finished last week but overlapped with the Spring camellias.
