'''March''' is the third month, marking the start of [[spring]].
 
  
 +
'''March''' is the third month of the year. It is the first month of [[spring]] in the [[Hemisphere|northern hemisphere]] and the first month of [[fall]] in the [[Hemisphere|southern hemisphere]]. In the northern hemisphere, many bugs and fishes that have previously left during the [[winter]] months return during this month. Exclusively in {{NH|short}}, throughout the month grass transforms from a color of light-brown to green and trees changes into a brighter shade of green. In the southern hemisphere, trees and grass deteriorate, and many bugs, fishes, and sea creatures have left due to the cooling temperatures, with more expected to leave after this month.

In the southern hemisphere, trees and grass deteriorate, and many bugs, fishes, and sea creatures have left due to the cooling temperatures, with more expected to leave after this month.
