Seems I'm not the only one in the family with my eye out for the birds.

As I was eating breakfast a flock of 60 – 70 robins flew in. I have seen a flock like that down by the lake but not here. The snow has melted from about half the back yard and the robins carefully groomed that open space. Do you think they got the groundhog's message and decided that spring is here?
Love, Dad
We haven't had a flock of robins show up here. But, just the other day..
I was so unsure that what I was seeing was a robin, it seemed so out of place against the icy landscape, that I actually got my binoculars out to double check. We've had a lot of visitors to the feeders this year. It seems much busier than usual. Wonderful to watch. Always entertaining.
and of course..

Handsome display!
And you got so close to him! Nice!
That’s a fantastic turkey photo!
We’ve had several flocks of robins in town eating fallen crabapples and I’ve heard a few in my wetland behind the house. What did surprise me were the Carolina wrens which have wintered over in my yard and titmice already putting themselves out there song wise looking for mates. What a glorious photo of the tom turkey.
Wow! The little birds and the big birds are wonderful!
Love the birds!
I’ve seen too many robins standing in snow up to their tailfeathers to trust them as signs of spring…
Your turkeys are GORGEOUS.
I saw two unhappy robins last month. What ARE they thinking?
