The daffodils are in full bloom around the cabins, and the bluebells are making an appearance in the woods. It's a great time to walk down the path to Sugar Creek and see the woods come to life. The blue heron has returned for another year. The redbud trees should be blooming soon.

There were 3 pileated woodpeckers behind the cabins today. Every so often, we see one, but it was amazing to see three beautiful birds together.

It looks like we've finally found a birdfeeder that will keep the squirrels from stealing all the birdfood! It's very entertaining to watch them hang upside down trying to get a seed out of the feeder. The redbud trees are in full bloom. We've counted 50 redbuds that are visible from the cabins. A redtail hawk likes to hunt over the meadow.
