Late Winter Update (February 18, 2024)

February has been an interesting month here in Central Ohio. Seen some visiting birds, and some fantastic regular residents here at the lakes. 

Fun to watch them, and enjoy seeing the interesting things they do here. 

As for the weather early in February it has for the most part been very warm for this time of year in the 50's and even low 60s. Have enjoyed that. 

On Valentines Day we traveled to CJ Brown Reservoir which is located just outside of Springfield, Ohio. A very large man made lake which is also the site of a state park.

Saw the deer below while there and the seagull. The deer was as curious about us as we were about her. The seagull did not seem to mind us at all, sure it had been fed by people in the past. There were a few people there but not a great many.

It was a wonderful place to explore and we will return in the future.  

On February 16, Winter returned. In fact it was the biggest snow fall of this winter, though here it measured at four inches. It has not been a big winter for snow, though it has a few times. 

From the Friday snowstorm which was quite pretty to watch, the snow lasted through the weekend. Got out a few times to check it out, quite beautiful and very peaceful.

Expecting the snow to really start melting on Monday as the temperatures will be well above freezing. In fact expecting 60's again by mid-week.

It has been an interesting month, and we have had a great time here with these and other advenures. We even made a day trip to Indian Lake earlier this month. 

Looking forward to the days to come. As always, thanks for visiting my pages,.
