The wet snowstorm of March 13 is seen through a picture window in mid-afternoon.
The tip of a Japanese Maple branch, encased in ice in bright sunshine, reminds one of a Chilhuly glass creation.
As the days lengthen, it won’t be long before Suffield abounds with examples of this gorgeous pink dogwood.
The February 10 Winter Farmers’ Market was announced as the last of the season, and with good weather, plus that warning, the turnout of sellers was impressive.
By this time of year, birders around town have had plenty of time to amp up their feeding stations.
The view that makes Taintor Street beautiful is the Leahey Farm at the corner of Sheldon Street, happily now protected from anything but farm and conservation use – and lovely vistas.

Over the past few weeks, when I have been traipsing around in the dark, I have heard great horned owls calling.
The Suffield Agriscience Center is hosting the Suffield Winter Farmers Market on Saturday, February 10 from 10 a.m. – 1 p.m. in the Large Animal Facility.
