Where did spring go?

It has been a cold spring here in Boise this year. There has only been two weekends that had highs of 70 or over. Most of time it has been in the high 50s to mid 60s. However, the weather today has been really bad. We had snow mixed with rain today. Did this happen at say 6 am. No, this happened at 5 pm. Look at the picture of our back yard.

The weather is so bad this cute Western Tanager wanted to get out of the snow and rain and took a rest right out side our back door. This is my favorite bird out here. It really rare to see one this close. They are sort of skittish.
