The girls love to go out to the lake and take walks. One of the parks we go to has a trail through the woods. It is often used by horse riders. We haven't walked it for almost a month because the frost was coming out and it was so wet. It has been in the 80's now for two weeks. The frost has to be out by now. I tried to walk the path but I kept running into wet, swampy, mucky areas of the trail. I had to go off the path and into the taller grass (wood tick haven). I decided to take the short path.

| Yellow Flowers |
The wild violets are blooming (in yellow, white and violet/blue.) I didn't take pictures of the mosquitos but they are in full bloom too.

| Blue Flowers |
It never ceases to amaze me how beautifully the spring flowers bloom despite the cold and uncooperative weather.

To my surprise, at the edge of the path was this itsy-bitsy scull. Looking closely it looks like the skull might have been crushed. I didn't see any other bones nearby. But I can't say that I dug around to look either.

Does anyone know what animal that this might belong too? My first thoughts are that it could be a squirrel or a rabbit.
