I remember how excited we were to see the robins and they always made the front page of our small town newspaper.

They represent HOPE that Spring is just around the corner!

*doing the happy dance for all you Winter weary folks*

Surreptitiously switches AMN's robotic bird for Robin "The Bird," and calls for Jappy's big hungry kitty.

Yes the geese should be there soon. They have left us, in Texas, and we are starting to see Bluejays. Thanks kellijo and southie for sending them, that means spring is around the corner.

Seen a few Robins in my back yard over the last two weeks, this morning it sounded like spring, a bird sanctuary, Cardinals talking and all. Male and female Mallard in the runoff ditch about 300 feet behind the house, a pair there every year. Great to hear the birds in the morning!

Saw my first Robin Wed. the 12th. SPRING SPRING is coming

Kellijo we also have tons of Starlings here. I put seeds out
for the other birds and they come down in hords and chase all away.

I put out all different types of feed to attrack different birds
and they just eat everything and destroy my feed hangers.

They also take the plastic garbage bags apart and leave a mess.

Can't wait until I start seeing the other spring birds.
