It Is Certainly Spring..

 It is looking and feeling like spring; lots of green with dogwood blooms, showers, pollen, mildish nights, warmish days. I suggest you get out on the big planet and check it out.
Most of quakes today along Philippine plate boundary, but only into low mag. 5's. Soufriere St. Vincent is still blasting away(easy to see from space station) and prognosticators are thinking it could go on for awhile. Island is deep, deep, deep in ash, residents trying to get out! Is nearby Pele, on Martinique next on the blast agenda? Only Earth knows and we humans sometimes don't read the signs well.
An average week of weather ahead for the Old Dominion, no big temp swings or dips or blasts, no big storms forecast. Water table is still very high but thirsty, growing trees will begin to take care of that. Excess groundwater and warm temps also means clouds will form daily.
Our star is still fairly quiet (for a star), crescent moon will begin to wax into evening view this week, just below Mars Friday and above Saturday.
Bird feeder glomming has slowed dramatically; bugs, worms, nectar, other options abound. Saw a flash the other day..hummer..not sure. Got a feeder filled with sugar water and hung but have seen no flash since.
Very low TrumpVirus deaths and cases reported yesterday, likely the Sunday lull. Lot of youth out partying, spreading the variants, seem happy to be killing grandma... I had really no adverse effects from shot #2, sore arm and that's mostly gone; I'm good with that:) Still mostly in hunker mode, mask and distance, hope you are, too, Today On Earth.
