What Happened to Spring?
It looks like sprng passed us by and summer suddenly showed up! But I am not complaining after the horrible winter we just had. I’ve been busy planting and hiking and the photo above shows the same trail as in the previous post, but on a much warmer day a few weeks ago. After severla 80 degree days and a 90 degree day we are back at 32 degrees this morning. But this is typical of Upstate NY weather. They say if you don’t like the weather, just wait a few minutes! All kinds of birds have been showing up. Tree swallows, a few warblers whose tunes I recognize (chestnut sided and black throated green warblers) and a few ducks have been hanging out on our pond. I’ve seen a pair of merganzers and a pair of mallards. A few herons have flown by and of course there are the obligatory geese that I am not thrilled to have pooping on our lawn, however they leave after they are finsihed nesting.
And of course what’s spring here on our litle farm without spring lambs. Just look at this cutie who promises to have a gorgeous fleece for spinning!

The weather is really crazy, as I almost melted down in the past few days, when the temperature suddenly increased up to 80 degrees!
That is wonderful weather and pictures are amazing. I love to have that lamb though for my son as he is insisting to have one. Anyways, thanks to catch up and to share those pictures.
Our environment is really starting to feel the effects of our abuse. Our weather and climate is on chaos..it should be spring but it feels like summer..also same thing here in the Philippines, this time, it is summer here but there are typhoon wrecking havoc in our country.
Well, it took a bit, but now the temperature has cooled down and it feels like spring. I’m not sure what that heatwave was all about.
Joy, You are very right and I think we are abusing anything (weather the most) with speed of light. Our next few years are going to decide everything for us and for our next generations.
@Joy, You are very right and we are abusing everything. Especially which might have very deep impact on our coming decade. Perhaps our coming generations will suffer all this.
Time is strange, because changes in one day four seasons, but this is not a problem for people who are in the business. I enjoy this beautiful sunny day and reading your posts.

Well, you’re certainly invited to come to West Texas where it’s as dry as a popcorn fart and as hot as hell. 102 today. We’re playing golf tomorrow and it’s supposed to get up to 100-101 during that time.
Come play a round with us.
No kidding, your place sounds wonderful. I wish I were up there.
You are right. weather is really crazy and getting crazier. It is alarming what may happen in the next generation!
Cute animal!
Unfortunately things will get even worse; if climate changes, everything else changes: food, animals, water level…etc. I am really sorry that we do not care enough and we let this happen. I really miss the winters full of snows, the spring with fresh fruits - which had a taste and summers with normal temperatures.
You are right- the climate is changing and with it the entire earth; I really miss the winters with snow, the spring with fresh fruits which had a taste and the summers with normal temperature.
Thank you for the info. it looks like a great place to start.
See, the question we ask every year in the UK is…what happened to Summer?!!
In the Uk we just ask, what happened to summer?
Every year without fail…
Hopefully, things will not go to the worst scenario. Further hoping that people will be sensitive to our mother planet.
thanks for the information

spring is the most amazing season in the year.
The picture of the srping lamb is so adorable. I’m still waiting for summer to show up. You can probably tell that I’m from the UK judging by my last sentance

Weather nowadays is really unpredictable but in our country we enjoy summer and rain since we are on tropical climate. Wish I could get to experience, winter and spring…

Spring….I really love this season, but now a days i am suffering a lot with summer in my city.
Really waiting for the spring to come in and summer to go far away. The lamb is so cute and i think he/she is also enjoying the spring.
I love spring but now a days suffering with unbearable summer in my city.
Just waiting for spring to come in and get rid of this summer.

Very nice pics. Specially the cute little goat.
Our abuse of mother nature is taking its toll now a days.
Global warming is felt not only in New York.
But, around the world as well.
great post.
wow..
nice pictures…
really very good post..
Interesting to read…
great post
Where exactly is this taken? Looks kinda deserted, I see no cars around there…
I loved the little lamb, thanks
I love to have that lamb though for my son as he is insisting to have one. Anyways, thanks to catch up and to share those pictures
Wow great pictures. I live in the country and i see that every day. I feel lucky
Winter is already setting in here and your pictures make me think of spring.
As we can see the effects of climate change and the global warming slowly makes our environment really way different from before. Before even after a winter the weather is tolerable, but this years weather are worst, I haven’t enjoy the spring because of the hot weather. seems that summer was too early. I hope these article of your can be a start of an eye opening for us to do something about our world. Because if we don’t we will suffer much worst than this.
I wish I could see and feel spring because my country is tropical country
we use to abuse the environment and now its effect is starting to show..
great post!!
Oh buddy! I found the weather is looking very romantic.I found you just done a very good and artistic work.Great photography, must be salute to you.bye.

The picture of the trail looks like a great place to get some exericse and experience nature at the same time. I bet it is beautiful this time of year during the fall when the leaves are changing and falling.
What a cute lamb! Nice photos. Looks beautiful where you are.
wow !! its natural beauty ! i love your work its touching in my heart.keep it up
They added a wind farm about 5 miles from my home but now that the leaves are gone again i can see them… it is actually really cool. Great pics by the way
Wow those photos look great. Its cold as hell over here in Surrey UK and ice everywhere.
What happened today on Spring Creek between Preston and Windcrest? One black car, fire truck and cops standing?
Great design of your blog, sorry off topic but I love your design, very balanced and easy on the eyes.
There are a few importamt things to consider before purchasing a bird cage. How large the new bird will become will also helps to determine size of the bird cage, but selecting as large a bird cage as you can afford with the space to place it is thought to be a good idea. Make sure the bird’s tail does not touch the back or the bottom of the cage while sitting on the perch.
the weather plays games with us. totally unpredictable….. and i like it
What does spring blinging mean? Does it mean you’re wearing jewelry in the spring or does it just mean you’re enjoying the spring? Whatever it means I’m sure I won’t be doing it.
I can’t tell if it’s global warming or maybe weather has always been this nuts, but it sure does feel crazier right about now.
seems good!
As a photographer of some ability myself, I must say that this work is hugely competent.
The balance and rhythm, along of course with the subjects themselves uplift. That is 90% of what photography is all about.
Viewing these photos is like walking outside and having the sunshine hit my face for the first time in weeks.
Thank you so much.

I miss spring already…
I like spring very much atmosphere is too pleasant. But now it is so hot green leaves has disappeared this is all because of global warming we only need car nice bike etc. and then we ask where is spring
Yup I like to ask this question to the world. It is truly said that – somewhere or the other aren’t we responsible for spring to disappear. Grass has turn to hay, green trees turned bound the spring timing shift it is all because of globe worming
I feel not only globe worming is responsible for loss of our spring. We cut forest, we burn fuel etc. all leads to environmental problems. entire forest is brown is the image and lamb must be filling so hot
You take some grat photographs on your blog. Thank you for that.
I’ve been reading about the terribleeffects of cliamte change and how it affects the poorest people in the world.
The weather in Seattle is finally warming up. 65F toady, yeah
Can you tell me where the picture with the windmills was taken? I’m helping my son with his scholl paper on alternative power sources and their locations. We don’t have anything like this in our area.
that’s great when a person has an ability to find funny moments in ordinary things:) Thanks for sharing your cheerful experience!
The weather is so much better this year and I’m enjoying every second of this beautiful springtime! It’s my favorite season for the year. Anyway, your photos are great too - you have an artistic eye.
First of all nice pictures!
Over here the weather is strange as well, let’s hope we will get a decent spring and summer
Hey, thanks for running this blog, its really a good read for me at work
!
This is all about the nature is.Pics are really nice and clear as it shows the spring.
First pic is really nostalgic. Taking me back to my olden days.
It is sad to see this. The spring was bad for me. Lot of troubles.
Bring on summer already. Winter was too long and it can stay away for as long as possible.
The spring lambs are the highlight of my day when I drive past them on the way to work every morning. Now that we’re getting into summer, they’re so much bigger - growing fast! Can’t wait till next year when they’ll be bouncing around again
Summer has already been too hot already! I’m ready or fall if its going to be like for the next 3 months.
It’s really weird thing about spring this year. Here in Michigan we barely had any rain and it was hot and muggy. Now that summer has gotten here its been much more mild and raining constantly. It seems like the seasons forgot which order they are supposed to go in.
People probably think global warming is to blame for the warmer weather coming sooner in the year every year. It’s an interesting debate to say the least.
Awwww look at that cute baby lamb. When I saw it I thought it was hurt but I’m glad to see its okay. I absolutely love animals

All products offered are chosen with the highest standards and quality. They guarantee each and every product offered for sale on their site to be brand new, genuine and authentic.
Your blog is very interesting.
Now im thinking what happened to summer. I can’t believe its almost fall already!
I love the photos. You captured them perfectly. Anyway, we can’t really do anything about the weather but to adopt to it.
