Sucks about the mosquito, but nice to see the goslings out.

Seen my first mosquito a little over a month ago, they were insane after the first rain. The only downside of the warmer weather.

As soon as the snow melted and the nice weather appeared is when the mosquitoes showed up full force, not even a few days to enjoy bug free! Sheesh. And they're huge. But I love spring nonetheless.
