We have received 1.16 in. of rain this week with most of that falling at the end of this week so soil is wet right now.  It has been somewhat warm this week but cool at night.  Rabbits and squirrels are still active in my yard and birds are still enjoying seed and suet at the feeders.  Gray catbirds are back and white-throated sparrows are still here.  Spring is still progressing along with peonies in full bloom in my yard.  Some of my iris are past peak while others have yet to bloom.  We definitely needed the rain.
