Where is spring when you need it?

You may be tired of blogs about winter and snow. I know I am! But it's not as easy as "just say no to snow." This unseasonable weather is taking a toll, physically and psychologically.

Cindy at WoodSong - Off the Beaten Path writes Migrants Taking a Cold Beating and worries about the birds and other wildlife who cannot find sufficient food or warmth in this weather.

The Ann Arbor News printed a photo of a robin pulling a worm out of the ground in the snow, with the caption "Frozen food." Jimmy, at Details of Nature, offers a similar picture sans worm in Word of the Day! but doesn't say if the word's "robin" or "snow." Maybe bird is the word?

Although her post's title is recently read or seen - and enjoyed, Bev at Burning Silo opens with a photo and discussion of the unseasonable weather. Her word for it is "tiresome" and with it she captures the feeling we all have about this mess.

In The Good, the Bad and the Ugly: a Birder's Tale in three Parts, Jochen of Bell Tower Birding promises no more posts about the weather, which he didn't let prevent him from birding.

Colleen, of In the Garden Online, writes about the challenges of this cold and snow for gardeners in Now I Have Faith. Fortunately, she was successful in nuturing her sproutlings, so check out her post for ideas and insight if you're trying to start something growing despite the weather.

In an Iowa Garden, Don observes A Shaft Of Sunlight On A Snowy Day. While this is a basically cheerful post about the yellowing of goldfinches as a sign of spring, the s-word is still involved.

And me? I've run out of words for snow, and thus I share with you the comments of my colleagues.
