Your P.E.I.: Thaw brings first signs of spring

The snow we received in February is disappearing, the red dirt is re-appearing, rivers are starting to rush and spring is in the air. It's all opportunity for photographers with rubber boots!

It's still a few weeks until official spring, but already signs of melting and mud are showing
