When I was young, the two main signs of spring for me were:

the miniature iris and tulips were blooming
and kittens were being born

What do/did you watch for in spring when you were a child?


Now that I am (much) older, I realize that probably most of the crops had already been planted, and all sorts of trees had done their thing by then - but the kittens and baby iris were what I watched for way back then.
