Spring is just around the corner.

Yes, the new season arrives this evening at 5:58 p.m. with a bad pun and a full Super Moon that's referred to as the Worm Moon. According to The Old Farmer's Almanac, at this time of the year "the ground begins to soften enough for earthworm casts to reappear, inviting robins and birds to feed - a true sign of spring."
