Current News of Whidbey Island always includes a tidbit for us Nature Lovers. Last night we saw frost below the full moon. Here is a remembrance of last year at this time from a good friend and talented nature writer.
Wind
Night before last I was walking home on Humphrey about 8:30. It was dark. There was a light rain, almost like a refreshing spritz on a hot day of Michigan summer. But the wind! Oh, it blew and whipped my hair and caressed my face, and tugged at my coat, and buffeted my body, and moaned and whistled through the power lines and bent the trees and churned the shrubs and cleansed my soul.

The humming birds around Whidbey Walks have not yet returned. I hear from one friend that hers never left to head south this year. I do see the purple finches already around the feeder. Please feel free to share you late-winter-early-spring news with us. |
