Robins don't eat seeds - they eat worms and bugs! Do you DM, have bugs and worms??


P.S. I love you!

I have not seen one single robin out my window today. (sigh)

Maybe they WERE migrating somewhere. It was so bizarre!!

No worms and bugs here, Char. No wonder they left; the buffet here stinks!!

Apparently robins can fly 100 - 200 miles a day, so they were probably just re-grouping there . . . on their way home to Canada.

WTHeck is "Stuckey's"?

According to my calculation, they should arrive in about 2 weeks . . . is there a message you would like me to give them from you, DM?

By George, I mean By Cherie~ I think you've got it. That must have been what was going on, b/c the trees were just loaded w/them and when they took off, the sky was just black w/them. It was a very strange sight to see in IL in Jan.

Stuckey's is also along some of the interstates, although I haven't seen one in a long time. You can buy really cool toys and trinkets at outrageous prices as they are always "must haves". I remember my DD always wanted those magnetic face toys where you use the magnetic wand to put hair etc on the face. Ah, reflections.

Oh and Cherie? You can tell the Robins that they got me all excited for an early Spring for nothing. So~ thanks for nothing robins!!!!

Let me know if they arrive waaaay up there!! You'll know them, they have red breasts and eat bugs!!

UPDATE!!!

Did DM see hundreds of robins or was she delusional???? (OK, a pathetic looking lil robin, but it's all I could find on short notice*

The jury is in and TA DAAAAAAAAAA I am not delusional!!!

Talked to my brother in WI last night, told him about my robins and he said there was a piece about them on the Madison, WI news channel. He said there were several hundred of them sighted.

So, IL to WI~~~ Next stop = CANADA????

Cherie~ oh Cherie? Look out your window!!!!

OK, I might be a leetle delusional at times, but dang it~~ I saw ROBINS!!!

This is DM reporting from TH~ over and out!
