Good morning peevers.

Spring has officially sprung but looking out here you wouldn't know it.

It's not very warm- low 30s at the moment- and snow is forecast for Northern England and Scotland at the weekend.

We have had many a peeve about the weather, a tricky subject as we live in such different regions. How can you talk about Arizona, Wisconsin and South Carolina all in one go?

I'd like to know what your spring weather is like and if it is up to your local expectations.

So, the POTD is;

It might be Spring, but would you know it?

Now then my dear peevers, I did say that I'd have some special photos today, and here they are.

Today we are in St Lucia, and we went off in a small boat whale watching!

Here are the best results;

Yes. The trees are budding out. The insects are buzzing. And as night falls a chorus of frogs and crickets takes over for the day shift of birds and daywalkers.

Ooooh, nice photos, Jezer!

Our climate doesn't have four distinct seasons so I can't peeve too much about weather, but this spring has been noticeably cooler than usual. *shiver*

Nooooo! I would never know Spring was here, our high is going to be 41 today. But the daffodils came out, so I guess that's a sign. It's not Spring for me till it gets much warmer!

That's a magnificent whale tail!

Happy to say there hasn't been much of winter in my neighborhood. Myself and others have been busy at the nurseries.

What great pictures, Jezer! As far as spring weather goes, it's pretty much springtime where I live year-round, though weather patterns have seemed a bit off this year.
