An Unexpected Sign of Spring

I have a cute little crystal bird that sits on my kitchen window sill. It signals me that spring is coming by throwing little rainbows all over my kitchen for about 10 minutes in the afternoon while the sun is positioned just right. Today it is sunny and the rainbows are back!


We've also had a whole flock of noisy, chattering black birds return to the neighborhood. Not exactly the gentle twitters of spring birds; but bird song, nonetheless and welcome!
