It's bitterly cold outside. I hope they make it through this. Quoting: Bluebird . I love the lil hummingbirds I do too. It just takes so damn many to make stew though. _______________________ |

Quoting: Dr. Acula But we got 1/4th inch lingering around and its been coming down hard In Ky too. Still a bit of snow in spots here.I have pear trees and the limbs were sagging a lot.This was one heavy snow.I am very glad it didn't snow a lot because everything with leaves would have broke.It packed together like a rock.The steps probably had half an inch and I couldn't sweep it off because it was packed so tightly and very heavy.Now saying we will hit the low 20s tonight and maybe even teens in places.So anything thats growing that isn't protected will be history. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 50838805 United States 04/15/2014 08:10 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Global warming of the atmosphere (WHETHER CAUSED BY THE SUN, INTERGALACTIC FLUFF, C02, OR ALL OF THE ABOVE [probably]) is destabilizing the climate we are 'used to', by causing disruptions in the jet stream and also the containment of arctic air to the northern latitudes. This will be happening more and more along with other exacerbated fluctuations (rain, dry, heat). Welcome to the new erratic normal. |

Must be celebrating the resurrection, eh? (Started mine from one strip of cactus that was on Home Depot's garden store's floor. Now I have 4 pots from that. Yes. I asked them if I could have it. ha.) I never seen them flower twice in a year or flower this late either, maybe they know something we don't. My magnolia tree usually has flowered by now also and it does not even have any buds yet. Going to be a weird year at this rate. I'm only human, it's my biggest flaw. We must all realize a sink a chair and a pillow are all luxuries of home and a soldiers helmet takes the place of all three. |
