An early spring! That is the prediction.
Willie apparently did not see his shadow today.
The Life & Legend of Wiarton Willie is a delightful tale of the little groundhog who emerges from his burrow to supposedly predict the weather. The author, David A. Haley, is a retired educator who grew up on a farm in West Flamborough, "on the edge of Beverley Swamp," Ontario.
