They're Back!


We had a  few tough Robins that stayed here all winter but most of them head south. The past couple of weeks the snowbirds have been arriving back in town and it is not unusual to see large groups of them foraging in the parks. On a coolish morning this one was soaking up the sun and quite enjoying it, I think, since it stayed on this branch for at least 10 minutes. It's good to hear them singing again.

They are usually here around Christmas and don't stay long. Love your photos of these beauties!

A sure sign of spring. They have been here for a few weeks now. I wish them well with our spring snow.

What a beauty! It's great to see this fellow. I haven't seen any in a while. I need to keep an eye out to see if any pass through here on their way north.

Oh well bet it is wonderful to hear their song again! It was funny to hear about the tough robins. A good name for a ladies gang. Aloha Pat🌺

So nice to have the birds back. I've been happily watching the return of our summer migrants this week.

Beautiful bird and a little bit different from our robins. Thanks for showing us.

Their feasts begin when the bugs come out., which is where our life takes a downturn -- sort of. 😊
