Skies of Almost Spring #SkywatchFriday

In three days, where I live in the Southern Tier of New York, it will be meteorological spring.  

The sky is starting to change.  True, enough times it is still the white-grey that so many of us dislike.  But then there are days like yesterday. 

You can't see it in the photo, but tree buds are swelling.  The sun is less shy.
The sunlight seems brighter.  The clouds are more varied.
Snow is melting.
The clouds and blue make a delicious sky layer cake. 
Look over to the right. There is a dot. The dot is the moon.

All the while I was walking, and taking pictures, I heard at least one Northern cardinal singing.

We still have weeks of winter yet, but I thank Nature for the sneak preview.

  3. It is supposed to get up to 82F here in Oklahoma today. I've declared another shorts and tshirt day.
    As where you are the skies are changing but this way too warm for this time of year.
