2. Before we got flooded in 2011...

There were many feral cats in the neighborhood. Springtime would be bedlam in our neighborhood, with many young birds being killed by the cats.

The cats disappeared after the flood. So did the rabbits, for many years. Now the rabbits have returned in full force.

I too count the minutes of daylight returning after the winter solstice.
