WW: First Sign of Spring {Linky}

How do I know spring is coming soon? I can tell ya it's not if a groundhog sees his or her shadow. It's if I see buds on my Magnolia tree.

Some of them look like cats.

Have you seen any signs of spring?

Nature

Daddy went to get some wood and found this:

Snake Skin

There were about 3 or 4 snakes. Don't worry, we do not have poisonous one's that live here. They are just gardener snakes, which are perfectly harmless! In fact Grandpa Spiehs used to let me hold them when I was a kid. Daddy wouldn't let the boy's hold them. I let the boy's hold them once when we were on a walk. Don't tell Daddy!  

Then Mica spotted a spider web in our Magnolia Tree. I think their webs are truly artistic!
