If the groundhog sees his shadow this is supposed to indicate six more weeks of winter. Around here that still means an early spring 😊 . I’ve featured this image before and it’s still one of my favourites.

Hahaha I laughed today as well, Spring is March 20, we sometimes have spring, sometimes we are still snowmobiling!

Winter weather usually hangs around here until the very end of March when crocus suddenly appear 😊

Groundhog wakes up peckish, commits minor acts of horticultural crime, and then vanishes like a dirt wizard. It’s basically a sentient potato with opinions and a jawline built for chaos. I doubt he knows shiitake about winter’s duration. 🦫

Great photo, Belinda, and happy Groundhog Day. 😊 With all the overcast, there’s no way that critter saw his shadow! Definitely an early spring (especially for the east!).

Thank you, Lynette😟. Shadow or not, I bet you’ll be seeing some spring sights pretty soon!

A fun tradition, but like you, we still have at least 6 weeks to go!

We’re showing signs of spring here already so I think he’s wrong…unless our mild winter turns into a hard one late that is.

I hope the critter is wrong for you northerners and in the States too!

Thanks 😊. A bit of fun as winter stretches on. Ontario and Quebec’s groundhog predict an early spring!
