"Going! Going! Gone! A Spring Week In The Northern Forest!"

It looks like Spring has finally arrived here at Miortuk!
The above group of photos, shows the progression of the ice disappearance here in the lake this week. It always amazes me how quickly it can go from an icy mass to a beautiful mirror, reflecting the Nature surrounding the lake.
Soon the trees will start to bud and then release the vibrant green foliage of the forest.  
Every season here has its special charm, we just need to take the time to enjoy it.
Yesterday, I heard the return of the first Loon, the start of the mating sounds of the frogs and saw the a rabbit that has already changed from its Winter white to its Summer brown.
The kennel is drying out with only a few areas on the South/West side still with ice.
The dogs have been entertained this week with the return of some Butter Flies that they love to chase. 
Bergen is getting closer to her due date (May 5th) and the puppies can be felt as they journey down the birth canal.
Yes, Spring has returned to the Northern Forest!
Here is a recent photo sent to me from Bruno Raymond with Hinto.
Another successful adoption. Thank you Bruno.
Until next week.....
