Nothing of note at Springfield Lake yet, ice is persisting but the holes are growing. The superintendent of the Springfield Twp grounds dept informed me that three young bald eagles were seen on St Patrick's Day, and that the township is accepting donations of plants, ornamental grasses for example, in hopes of deterring Canada geese from defiling the sidewalks.
