I think I have some of them, between the two ponds. They blossom when I can still see snow in spots.

Usually the Marsh Marigold blooms in very early spring, and even with ice around the plant. This year they are confused cause we had such mild winter. My marsh merigold is blooming right now as well... Very odd time!

19 years ponding and hopefully 4 more!
Yikes and I still have to net the fish from the cold water and put inside yet. Waiting for some warmth but looks like not.

Your scaring me!!! We got a big wet dump of snow today and it was so heavy it weighed the nets down over ponds and broke the strings holding nets up. Took them all down. Going to be cold winter I fear.

Burr cold here no snow.
Wow. That was a short ponding season. That would drive me crazy. We had our first frost last night but I have a while before the pond ices over!

The ice cover is coming and going.
It really demonstrates the evaporative cooling power of wind, low humidity and air temperatures around the freezing mark.

After a brief return to summer, pond is frozen over again, it looks like this may be it for the rest of the season this time.
