Signs of Spring

The 1st sign of spring was found along the edge of the practice field. We saw female cones hanging at the end of the tree branches, honey suckle vines that were just starting to grow and pine trees that stood out to everyone. While listening I heard the a/c from the school running, leaves blowing and tumbling over one another causing a weird sound. I felt warmth of the outdoors that felt amazing, the sun beaming down and baking me, and a very light breeze from the wind.
When the 2nd sign of spring was found we were down by the pond. We spotted  the female and male cones with pollen on it, little waves in the pond from the wind. A bird cawing in the sky and a falling branch was heard. I felt the wind picking up causing it to cool down but it still felt nice with the 54 degree weather.


Sign 3 was seen on the trail behind the school. We seen a butterfly flying all around and sum red branches that I have never seen before. I heard the sound of frogs that were about to mate (courtships), the few dry leaves cracking on the ground, sticks being broken from people stepping on them. I felt the sun shining down on making it hard for me 2 bare and a light breeze that kept the temperature from being perfect.


In front of the school is where sign 4 was seen. I saw the trees in front of the school were starting to bloom, and few patches of grass starting to get greener. We heard the sound of branches braking off trees, cars moving up and down the road, and an annoying bug buzzing in my ear. I felt it starting to get hot again because the sun beaming down on me with no shade around.
