It was a large flock - probably 50 - and they were clambering all over the trees looking for food, then on their merry way.

No crocuses in Florida, so I guess this will have to do for my new spring signal.

Our almond trees are in full bloom and there is another tree that has white cluster blossoms (looks like cotton balls exploded). So yes, spring has sprung.

How funny!! I saw robins in the bird bath yesterday too!
Great pics! Thanks for sharing them.

I agree...jealous.
But not too because we have lovely Blue Jays, Cardinals, Titmouse (or is it Titmice when there is more than one?), Juncos, Chickadees. Loking forwward to the Robins tho.

SNOW anyone? Send some warmth our way.

When I think of robins, I think about my dad fighting with them over the cherries in his tree. He so looked forward to my mom making a cherry pie for him. They couldn't just eat one cherry. They had to take a bite out of each one.

You mean there is actually hope that we will eventually get spring up here in Canada? Yeaahhh!

Oh...no fair no fair! I thought you meant the first signs of spring were here for US....central florida? That's cheating! ;)
Got me all riled up and everything...
