This is my third time visiting Centennial Woods. This time was different, however. Now that the weather is getting warmer, the snow is starting to melt and the sun is coming out more often (ironically the day I went wasn’t sunny, but the last few days have been). I’ve started to see the paper birch I’ve been looking at and other nearby trees to be growing new branches. You can see it by the reddish-brown buds coming out of the existing branches. It’s nice to see how nature is starting to wake up from its hibernation in winter, and with the birds chirping again and flowers starting to bloom, its marking the change into spring.
