i too saw our first robin on the weekend, i could hear it and about an hour later he was on the telephone post, it was awsome to see him, i had been told a couple of weeks ago that a person had seen one, but it was still awfully cold here, but i guess its possible.

I saw my first Robin March 10th this year. I saw the first one February 2nd last year (groundhog day go figure) But last Saturday was the first time I heard birds singing in a very long time. It put a big smile on my face [grin]

I know this is the robin topic, but I didn't want to start a new one...

Just wanted to say that I saw my first pair of Mockingbirds for the year! [thumb]
