The Emerald Isle, St. Patrick's Day

 Holsteins happy to be back in the pasture

Is Ireland really any more 'emerald' than this? Just look at all this green.  I took these photos in my neighborhood last May. Scenes like these are why I love Wisconsin, especially from May through October.

I hope we don't get a snowstorm again this May. I've not been noticing deer in the fields this winter at all. It's been a tough winter for wildlife. :-(

Happy St. Patrick's Day!
