    We are getting a whopper of a winter storm today. Hope the robins aren't anywhere near here yet.

    They are out in swarms here. They show up for about a week, then fly off, a few days later they are back. This is a photo, of the ones that didn't fly off as soon as I opened the door. The robins took over the trees and the corn field had oodles of black birds. Been keeping the feeders filled up, they are getting plucked clean.
    I keep expecting to see Hitchcook outside my window. whole lotta bird chatter going on.

    There is nine in this photo.
