More Spring!

I spooked a couple of sandhill cranes in the backyard this morning. They were hanging out by the birdfeeders, and got spooked by me walking up to the backdoor, so they flapped off over the pond and hollered at me. :)

Some of the other gardens are still snowcovered, but the side garden is growing and blooming. There are crocuses blooming in the garden, away from the foundation wall, and some other early spring things coming up as well. I won't be able to tell what they are until they bloom, though.
