You're looking at a projected half of Scituate's municipal lighting bill, right there.
Well, look at that, right across the North River. Finally, all those weeks of wondering just when the new wind turbine in Scituate would be up are over.
A stinky way of saying "spring is almost here."
But the turbine’s not the only thing that popped up this week. Skunk cabbage poked out of the wet ground at the base of the hill at the North River Wildlife Sanctuary.
And mama salamander was right there, too.
In those same woods we found some red-backed salamander eggs, yet another sign that spring is at least thinking about making an appearance.
A common sight on our winter beaches south of Boston.
Out on Duxbury Beach, the dunlin are still holding court, keeping the mud primarily to themselves.
What a winter for snowy owls...
They’re just lucky the resident snowy owl is more into the grasslands than the mud. Soon, though, neither will care too much what’s happening on the South Shore of Boston.
