Instead of my usual fundraising for the Bruce Trail, this year I'll be participating in the Carden Challenge:
Carden Challenge - Team Fundraising Page
I've been wanting to go to Carden for years now, and I'm looking forward to having the excuse to get my naturegeek on and really hunt out some interesting species. Loggerhead Shrikes and Upland Sandpipers and Smooth Green Snakes, oh my! My camera will be fully charged and working hard, hopefully I will have plenty of awesome photos to post after it's done.
On a more local and immediate note, lawdy but spring feels slow this year. We've been getting some warm days but most of the nights are still hovering close to zero, so the spring ephemerals are only just starting to come up at the Arboretum. Realistically, I'm sure it's not significantly slower progress than any other year, but I am impatient and therefore it feels like spring should have kicked in weeks ago.
