Spring is Much More Than Dripping Icicles

http://stream.publicbroadcasting.net/production/mp3/wrvo/local-wrvo-956412.mp3

Oswego, NY – This is an archived episode of Nature of Things. It was originally aired February 15, 1990.

Spring is more process than event. What we see is a culmination of a mountain of hidden events. Dynamic growth patterns create the new life of spring. Weeks describes the hidden events that define spring and the change that we all anticipate after a long, hard winter.

Recent cuts to federal funding are challenging our mission to serve central and upstate New York with trusted journalism, vital local coverage, and the diverse programming that informs and connects our communities. This is the moment to join our community of supporters and help keep journalists on the ground, asking hard questions that matter to our region.

Stand with public media and make your gift today—not just for yourself, but for all who depend on WRVO as a trusted resource and civic cornerstone in central and upstate New York.
