-AROUND TOWN-

This week Jeff Reynolds caught a tufted titmouse at his feeder.
Hopefully we'll hear his spring call soon.

Speaking of spring, Mabel Silliman of Deansboro noticed a "Snow Drops" plant in full bloom & other spring bulbs popping out of her gardens. One can only hope it means spring is right around the corner.

Milk and gas prices seem to be holding steady this week.

- WEATHER - The weather was brutal this weekend, but things are warming up in the future. Yesterday morning from the weather station at the Observatory Every day in the 5 day forecast is at least above 0! - PRESIDENTS' DAY - Presidents’ Day is an American holiday celebrated on the third Monday in February.
