A bird pooped on my hand today. A wild bird flying I-don’t-know-how-far above me. I was hanging up laundry, which was spared. Some consider it a sign of good things to come.
First time in my life. I have a photo, but decided not to post it.
Happy Grass Moon, everyone!

The Moon continues to brighten the evening sky this week, waxing to her Full phase on the 17th at 10:44 pm Eastern Daylight Time. April’s Full Moon is popularly known as the Grass Moon or Egg Moon in Native American skylore, but it also happens to be a very important marker in the religious calendars of Jews and Christians. Known as the Paschal Moon, it sets the beginning of Passover and fixes the date of Easter.

“On average, April is the windiest month of the year for Albuquerque. So far, we’re above normal with an average wind speed of 11.6 mph (10.6 mph is average).” Kinda downplays how frequently we experience higher than 50 mph.(Abqjournal’s Weather Fact)
New Pornographers are playing at the Sunshine theater tonight. I’ll sit at home listening again to “My Rights vs Yours.”
Stepped outside at 10:47pm with the dog and it is *raining* with a bit of snow or ice.
Average last freeze date is Tax Day.
