For this week's Spring Equinox, I made a labyrinth from birdseed and held a walk. The weather here has been extraordinarily warm and summerish so we had to remind ourselves it was just Spring! Ten of us had a lovely evening walking the labyrinth in the light of the setting sun (and discovering that mosquitos are already out and about). A fat black squirrel also enjoyed our labyrinth, sneaking close to grab as many sunflower seeds as he could from the outlines!
I'm sharing this as part of Saturday Snapshot featured by Alyce at At Home with Books.
What a great way to welcome spring! We have had some lovely warm weather here, too.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a lovely way to begin spring! And I'm sure the squirrel agreed. :)
ReplyDeleteWonderful! Thanks for sharing the lovely welcome to spring.
ReplyDeleteHere's MY SATURDAY SNAPSHOT
Cool. I slapped at a mosquito this past week too!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a fun tradition! It's been unseasonably cold here.
ReplyDeleteAhhh, the ubiquitous Ontario black squirrel... I love them. What a neat pic.
ReplyDeleteI heard that because of the unseasonably warm weather, the mosquitoes could become a real problem this year -- and I'm hoping it isn't so. Why Noah took two of these things into the Ark with him -- well, we'll just never know.
A labyrinth from bird seed? Love that!
ReplyDeleteHeaven forbid that mosquitoes would miss an opportunity to chomp on the unwary!
ReplyDeleteVery very cool - its been warm here too.
ReplyDeleteMosquitoes must have welcomed you all as a moveable feast! Love the idea of an edible labyrinth.
ReplyDeleteCool idea! I also like your overall blog design - really interesting and beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful way to create a labyrinth that the birds (& squirrels) will pick up for you! Lovely photo too.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear everyone enjoyed a look at this. It was a truly inclusive occasion -- the wildlife loved it and so did we ;) Nice to have it cleaned up for us by all the birds and squirrels afterward, for sure.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to create a labyrinth! We may have to borrow this idea for the Summer Solstice. Happy Spring to you.
