Don’t forget that Daylight Savings Time begins this Sunday, March 10, 2013. Push your clock ahead one hour before you turn in Saturday night!

He (or she) is starting to look a little more goose-like:

Still a lot of hazards and hazardous prey that can befall a small animal – in the water and out. I’ll hope this one makes it…

Have a great weekend!
