I was out today kayaking on a local lake here in Georgia. The Canada
Geese are sitting eggs on the island in the lake. You get hassled as you
go by.

For frogs the main season starts here in January and ends in about late
July. With different species at different times. For birds, it's also
fairly spread out. Though it tends to end earlier.

We have already had temps up to 80 degrees, though this is the time of
year it can be like that one day and well below freezing the next. I've
had snow kill by garden in early may here, though that was unusual.

I'll see what I come up with.

Walt
