Default happy groundhogs day

who cares about the super bowl when you can watch a rodent crawl out of his hole (cage) and let us know the future.
i for one hopes he doesen't see his shadow.

Tigger is burrowing down in his environment. I have noticed when the salamander hides we are about to get nasty weather.

When we get chinooks he comes out and plays in his pool.

Just a direct observation.

Yes we still have that salamander that stinky was give almost 2 years ago.
He is spoiled rotten, living it up in a tank that is over 3' long.

Just so you know Tigger has been hiding for the last 3-4 days.

Prior to that he spent about 2 weeks playing in his pool.

I'm going to see if the groundhog in my yard is awake. Gotta love those giant ground squirrels.

Maybe by May 15th spring will be here & then spring will last until Mid November. No summer in Alberta.

CBC NEWS .... more predictions, inconsistent results, this sucks ....

Shubenacadie Sam -Nova Scotia - Did not see his shadow = early spring

Wiarton Willie - Bruce County, Ontario - Seen shadow = + 6 weeks snow

Punxsutawney Phil USA, - Seen shadow - + 6 weeks winter.

My prediction .... it will snow this May long!
