Is Winter Over Yet?

| No TrackBacks
I think right now my garden is more notable for things that aren't growing.  But in the interests of good garden journaling, I do have a few things to note:
  • The chirpy birds are back.  I don't know what kind of bird they are, but there is a whole flock of them and they live in the bamboo.  Apparently they're migratory, because I haven't heard them all winter until Monday.  They kick up quite a fuss at sunset and sunrise, but I've come to enjoy it.
  • No signs of daffodil leaves pushing up through the soil yet
  • The garlic and some of the bok choi are hanging on - barely.  The squirrels utterly destroyed the mustard and garlic that was growing in the pot that's in the backyard.
  • I've been looking around the yard for violets and chickweed, and I haven't seen any yet.  But I did find a little flower that looks like it might be speedwell. On the other hand, maybe not.  I need to add "Take botany classes" to my list of things to do ...
I'm hoping to plant tomato and pepper seeds this weekend, but who knows if I'll actually get around to it.
