Hey Nancy!

   Understood.  You aren't missing anything as far as I can tell.

   We're doing a tad better than that but not by much.  No snow that is for   
   sure.  Tommorrow is supposed to be nice - ~20C-ish.  Still haven't spotted any   
   quail but the neighbour claims he heard them in the brambles the other day.    
   No reported chicks yet but I think it is too soon and the hens are probably   
   still sitting on eggs.  I guesstimate we won't see any chicks until mid-June   
   or thereabouts.   
      
   Life is good,   
   Maurice
