DIXON — With this unexpected mild winter weather (the roads are clear, just a skiff of snow and some piles around), it almost seems like spring is approaching. I know better, though. The multitudes of birds are at my feeder as though this is their only hope for survival. I love seeing bunnies hopping around looking for something nourishing — so far they’ve eluded my hunting cats. And a few nights ago there were three large deer nibbling frozen strawberry plants, as well as little willows and various perennials, through the straw mulch. It’s always fun to see what comes up again in the spring.
