Good! That is a sure sign that Spring is on its way! I think that we are all ready!

I have a Robin too, but not the kind you are looking at. Mine is 32. I use to call her Robin Bird as a child, and she hated it . lol

Lucky You!
So far we only have sparrows and starlings, but the cat outside has decided they are good for him to practice his hunting skills.

Well they won't be splashing in water now!! It's still cold in NE Ia. But thanks for the heads up. And blue birds in Cashton--spring just may come after all!

I had robins about three weeks ago with two feet of snow on the ground. They were in the sumac bushes eating the berries. Then the same day I saw a blue bird. We usually do have the blue birds come early, but not the robins that early.

I saw a flock of robins about two weeks ago and saw a bluebird last week. I know we have bluebirds in this area, but last week was only the third time in the 21 years I have lived in this house that I saw them.

I also see my crocus coming up. They're usually in blossom at the end of February because they're in a protected area against the house, but we had way too much snow and cold this year.

C'mon spring, I'm ready! :lol:

My DH just read where robins are beginning to winter over in many northern states as far north as Alaska! What is going on? We had a pair here all winter too - in Missouri!

We had our first robbins arrive last Sunday. We have had no snow this winter and everything is very, very dry. I also had a large crow in my maple tree outside the kitchen window last night. Spring is coming to northern Colorado.
