bulbs and butterflies
I did go outside and do some gardening. More like garden cleaning actually but I was outside in the garden and that's what really counts. While I was outside I saw the first bulb flower. A pretty purple crocus near the house. So cheery and bright, I was thrilled.
Then S noticed a butterfly floating gently around the front of the yard. It was so sweet to see it. And rather surprising actually, I didn't think they'd be out yet.
Lots of wildlife today actually because on the way to school D and I saw a very large wild turkey by the side of the road. It was a little flustered by all of the traffic whizzing by but didn't seem inclined to move away from the edge of the road. I'm not that good at guessing but if I had to guess I'd say it was somewhere around a 15-18 pounder. Of course now that Thanksgiving is over we'll see lots of wild turkeys around. Somehow they dissappear at the beginning of November and reappear after the first of the year.
