April is a magical month.  Winter begins to release it’s frosty grip.  New growth and blossoms are all around us.  The temperatures begin to rise as the days become lomger.  Forest, fields, and streams are busy with active creatures everywhere.

The songs of birds fill the air.  Fish fill the rivers.  Animals scurry here and there.  It is a great time to take in the beauty and wonders nature has to offer.

Wheather it is a simple walk through a park.  Watching from your porch or deck. Maybe, you are hiking, backpackong, or floating along on a canoe. What ever your adventure, April is a great month to enjoy. 

Spring migration is in progress and April 5th through 9th is National Wildlife Week.  Time to thaw out, get out, and take in the freshness of Spring.

Have a great outing!
