I had some Skunk Cabbage not quite flowering yesterday in Southwestern Ontario. Probably could have found some in flower if I’d tried harder!
Some of the Red and Silver Maples look like they won’t need too much longer to start flowering.
Otherwise I didn’t see any signs of new growth despite a long walk in the woods.
Not plants, but every single Eastern Chipmunk seems to have come out of hibernation in the last few days! Lots more skunks, possums and raccoons dead on the highways. Haven’t seen any herps yet but shouldn’t be too long given the expected weather this week. Waterfowl and blackbird migration is in full swing, I saw tens of thousands of each yesterday.
