Spring came early this year

Yes, Spring came early to my hometown this year. Though we enjoyed one of the mildest winters in our collective memories, just about every Central Ohio resident was ready for Spring and truly appreciated its earlier-than-usual arrival.  It seemed fitting that our beautiful feathered-friend shown above would noisily greet us on St. Patrick's Day.  This cardinal sat in the bush just outside my window and relentlessly teased Callie the Cat who patiently sat on my window sill... contemplating how she might be able to shred the screen which separated her from this brightly-colored chattering song bird. Thank You dear Lord for granting us this beautiful day and for sharing the beauty of Your Creation with us.
