Oh Joy! When I got home from quilting today my yard was full of robins. That does give me hope that spring is finally on the way. I am so tired of snow, gloom and winter. The next signs will be the hummingbirds, my favorite.

I've been feeding the redwing blackbirds all winter. They should be nice and fat for the trip. Saw my first hummingbird today. Rushed to fill the feeders. Love to watch them. They will come and hover at the window if they are out of food. I'm just not ready for 80 and 90 degrees. March is too early to be this warm. :)

Yes are hummbirds show up about the third week in April. Sometimes they are sorry because we get those nasty wet snowstorms.
