Holy Spring-Time Batman........



The Official State Bird of Michigan is the Robin...
.
There are prettier birds..But what I LOVE about the Robin is, when you see one, Spring is not far behind!!!
.
I have yet to hear OR see one yet....I'm waiting!!!
.
...waiting patiently.
.
...for now.
.
Peace...!!!

I have seen bluejays and cardinals but no robins yet. They must be waiting for tomorrow, the first day of spring, gotta be. I hope they hurry, I am through with all this snow.

Here birdy, birdy, birdy...

Haven't seen hide nor hair or feather as the case may be of the little dickens.

If you see one, send him my way.

I don't think thats true. Robins are meat eaters, they are not seed eaters..
The worm, and insect eaters usually migrate to where there is food. whereas the seed eaters like Cardinals, Blue Jays, Sparrows, and Finches, stay for the winter and either forage or get fed by humans..Thanks ..xox

Missy...?
Snipe Hunting??

` My parents used to have a pet robin. He was awesome! Then one morning he was being really noisy and my dad put him in his cage on the screen porch and a cat came and dragged him off through the bars.
` Then he found a way to blame my mom for the whole thing. Nutter!

` I luvvs robins! ;) They's my favorite thrush!
` We have 'em all winter here because the climate's so mild. Yet, we're at about the same latitude.
` Washington's bird is the goldfinch, and Ohio's is the cardinal (I know because I used to live there).
