It's Official
Spring is Here in Nevada
According to Mohave Max
While the rest of the country has Punxsutawney Phil....
...to determine when "Spring Has Sprung"...
...for us Nevadans...
Phil has nothing on our Spring "King".
Mojave
Max has emerged from his burrow !
The
desert tortoise officially made his grand entrance on Friday, March 23,
at 11:11 a.m.
Mojave Max was born
in 2002 and calls the Spring Preserve his home.
For those of you not aware of this Nevada happening and celebrated reptile, each winter Max enters a burrow to brumate -- the
reptile word for hibernation, and emerges every
spring.
...and is now the official Nevada predictor of Spring.
And...after what appears to many of us as the one of the coldest winters in memory...
We at Anthem Opinions....
...welcome his return !
