Groundhog Day is February 2nd and whether you listen to Punxsutawney Phil (PA) the most famous or a more regional creature it's a fun tradition to predict an early spring or lasting winter. In NY we have several prognosticators near me including Staten Island Chuck (NYC), Malverne Mel, and Holtsville Hal (LI, NY).

This is a swap with two (2) partners for two (2) natural, funny, or fun images featuring groundhogs. These may be real animals or drawn versions, a groundhog at a ceremony, or one in a natural setting. Animated images and fun-spirited cartoons are fine too.

The how to: Please remember Image size MUST be 300 x 300 pixels OR SMALLER. Images are cut off if larger and that's no fun. Feel free to mention if you want 6 more weeks of winter or an early spring!

To post an image from a computer / laptop you need to use the following code WITHOUT the spaces. This shows the spaces or it will disappear

Use the preview button and please practice in the comment section below if you have never done images, it can take a bit of practice. Posting from a phone can be different, I cannot talk you through that. If anyone has a phone instruction information please reply and I will add it. I will allow unrated swapper BUT try BEFORE signing up .

Bring on the furry fun! (bring on spring)
