Strange day. I rode in on a beautiful, clear but cold morning. Stopped to take a couple of pictures and compare salamander sightings with one of the Audubon Society folks. The vernal pools were covered with the very thinnest sheets of ice. Mid-day it warmed nicely. Typical early spring day. Then about 4:00pm it started snowing. By the time I left at 6 it was covering the lawn. As I rode by the vernal pools, in a blinding snow squall, I could hear spring peepers. I do believe we are in our "mud & flood" season. Both rides were good times. Flora feels so light compared to VR.
