How do you know it's spring in Martinez?
Sure, you can hike Briones and Mt. Wanda and check out the colorful explosions of wild flowers. You can be immersed in emerald hues among the Alhambra and Franklin hills. You can luxuriate in the sunshine, mitigated by the coolest of gentle breezes wafting in from the Carquinez Strait.
Or you can take a walk at Waterfront Park, and know it's spring from the goslings hustling to keep up with their parents. Martinez Patch was on the scene to catch a few seconds of "awww" footage for our readers on a fine Sunday in spring.
