yippppeeeeeee!!!!!! i'm now looking at my first robin of the year. yes spring has sprung here in massachusetts. i usually see a robin, a lot sooner, than march 21st. one year as early as february 21st. i'm sooooooo excited and soooooooooo happy. :0) big big grin. and today is suppose to be 60-65 degrees. now when only 30 days ago it was zero degrees, 50 degrees seems heaven sent.

I've noticed robins here in Ohio for about 2 weeks, I think - maybe not quite that long. I heard them before I saw them! Won't be long before our slate juncoes fly away for the warmer months. :( I like those little guys.
