Squirrels, ducks, wild birds, geese and a fox

Well the greening of Americana Finnmark has begun, and with the greening and the warm weather the wild life has returned.

No, I do not mean the wild life at the Board Meetings, or the occasional
wild yelling and partying coming from some of my neighbors.

I am referring to animal wild life.
There is an abundance of squirrels, grey and black. Assorted wild birds-orioles, robins, cardinals, hawks, mourning doves, ducks and the noisy Canadian Geese. I recently saw a fox, but he appears to be visible only in the early evenings.

Meanwhile, the trees have bloomed, and are turning green, Grounds Management have been out to prune and cut down some of our dead trees.

Americana Finnmark is a beautiful place to live and admire nature- no need to visit the park or a nature center.

I am hoping that butterflies will soon appear after spending the winter in Mexico.
I have a brown thumb and can not seem to grow anything but those of you who have green thumbs, plant something colorful to attract butterflies.

The pool should be opened next month-- anyone up for a pool opening brunch or get together?

Well, that is all I have to say today, but enjoy the sights, the weather and talk to your neighbors. Have fun.
