Spring time and Squirrels

It is March and it is starting to feel like spring. Some days still pretty cold but everyday it is getting closer to warmth. This morning the Canadian geese were in the barnyard....telling us that they are back looking for nesting ground. Robins are definite back also....lots of birds at the feeder. Pheasants are here...but the real sign for me hasn't' happened yet....that is when the squirrels are back at the feeder. That is when I know for sure that spring is here and not going to be recalled in a snowy flurry.
So I am watching but no sign of those clever little fellows yet.  Here is a painting of one of our wonderful yard squirrels.
