Default Saw My First Robin
The sign of the seasons. Saw my first Robin this morning.

Was sitting drinking my morning coffee and saw something Red
out the window. Looked and there was

A ROBIN RED BREAST

I hope this does mean spring is near.

I think you may be right. I have crocuses coming up.

I had a crazy flock of robins that lived in my woods all winter, coming out in the late afternoon to eat and peck in the lower yard. What a beautiful sight to see each day. I love robins!

That must be the Robin, who was in my front yard tree, a couple of weeks ago. He flew further south when our temps took a dip..

Send him back...LOL!

I hope you're right. I need Spring! My DD and I were outside and the birds were singing up a storm. She had the same thought as you, she said the groundhog was wrong and Spring is on it's way.

I read an article last week that robins aren't migrating as far south, due to warmer winters in the northern climes...not a good sign after all...
I get so pumped when I see the first robins in spring!!
