Spring (season)

Many animals have their breeding season in spring-type weather. At the start of spring, a person suffering from seasonal affective disorder will feel sick. The vernal equinox in springtime makes day and night equally long in temperate zone.
Holidays celebrated in spring include Passover and Easter. In many countries, the period of school between early March and later May or early June is referred to as “Spring Semester” or “Spring Term”. Spring break is a vacation period in recent times at universities and schools in various countries around the globe.
