Groundhog Day 2016 and 2017 - check the daffodils

Not finding a groundhog in Ada on Feb. 2, this photographer resorted to taking a photo similar to the one from last year...Abby checking out the daffodils popping through the ground at the Railroad Park.  

The growth of the daffodils compares favorably to last year's; however, the maturity of the golden retriever pup is significant. 

Abby was 4 months old a year ago, now 16 months. And, yes, Abby saw her shadow on a bright, sunny Thursday morning as did wild groundhogs here as well as Punxsutawney Phil in Pennsylvania. 

So, expect six more weeks of winter. But if the next six weeks are anything like the past six, there will be little snow and warner than average temps. I can take that. HAPPY GROUNDHOG DAY! (Monty Siekerman photo)
