early tastes of spring

We've been blessed with some lovely sunny days. Yesterday Samuel and Eva and I met our friends Esme and Nicole at the Rhododendron Gardens. We love going there any time of year- it is a fantastic place to feed ducks and geese. And squirrels. We brought extra peanuts for the squirrels this time and the kids had fun offering peanuts to some already very well-fed red tailed squirrels. They took turns and the squirrels went from one child to the next gently taking peanuts from their hands.



Here are two of the little guys, the first one taking a peanut and the second after he had scurried off to eat it.



Surprise surprise- there were even some flowers blooming! Here is Samuel offering up the whole bag of cracked corn to an obliging goose.
