General
Agriculture:  We're still having some snow melt in the fields, and have seen some soil loss (nothing like last year).  Our moisture is exactly equal to the 25 year uncalibrated average, so hopefully we'll have a good crop year.  The neighbor farmers use no-till practices, so the moisture is retained better, as well as the soil.
Fire:  Risk is rising, of course, as we dry out.
Plants/wildlife:  New animal this week is frogs!  We have frogs in our back pond.  The pond is temporary (used to be "permanent," back in better moisture days ~ 22 years ago).  It dries up fairly quickly, so we haven't had frogs in quite a while.  Frogs are a very welcome sound!  Here's the list of birds so far this spring:
