Beautiful weekend on the trails. Woods starting to come to life after warmer temps moving in. The first wildflowers and greenery sprouting from the forest floor. Also more birds migrating in and fun to see scarlet tanagers in the forest Saturday. We have been clearing on the trails and also planting trees for spring trail work.
