Harbingers of spring is a term I've heard most of my life. They seem more obvious back in the Eastern United States than here in California. I'm sure they're here, but mostly not noticeable to me. Weather is probably the biggest indicator, but that is not always a reliable way to look at the seasons. We had some very warm winter days. Come to think of it, we didn't have much of a winter at all this past few months. I guess the warm weather was maybe a harbinger of spring? Seems kind of silly to me, but that's L.A. La La Land as they sometimes say. La la la. I can't hear you...
Spring is hard to determine here in Florida, too!!
ReplyDeleteWhenever hear "harbingers of spring" I always think of robins.
ReplyDeleteI don't know much about harbingers or spring but the seasons does bring change. I don't know L.A. but the winter where I am did seem rather shorter than usual.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely day.

Outside my window two robins, one red breasted, are flying about. Last year, they often alighted right outside my window on the old Christmas light wires we never take down. Here is hoping they nest close to my window again this year.
ReplyDeleteWe often get teasers for Spring, a couple of warmer days and we think it's here and then, wait, no it's cold, it's wet, it's still winter.
