Now and Zen |
Clearly, someone didn't get the memo. I have a pair of Ornamental Bamboos in front of the house and for the last three days I have had this little one coming by to feed on the berries produced by the Bamboo, he (she?) has been here a lot today, really chowing down on the little red morsels. I am glad that I can provide a source of nutrition. Me likey Robins, they are one of my favorite members of the avian world. ___________________________________________________________________________ "....imitate the action of the Tiger." | ||

I’ve noticed them here in Long Island for the last month. Had my fingers crossed for an early spring. | |||

I started seeing them about a week ago here in Central VA and believe it or not, I heard spring peepers last night during our downpour. Mother nature is being a bit weird right now ___________________________ No thanks, I've already got a penguin. | |||

I can't tell if I'm tired, or just lazy |
Saw one in my bird feeder last month...had to look twice to make sure I wasn't seeing things. _____________________________ "The problems we face today exist because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by those who vote for a living."

A friend that does bird rescue and rehab said most robins migrate south for the winter but a few stick around. | |||

1st week of January I saw 2 eastern blue birds. Don't see to many of them, let alone 1st week of January. A few days later, saw 4 robins. It's 8° now, and dropping. I bet they wished that they stayed south an extra week or two! ARman | |||

I've been seeing them for close to a month here just north of Baton Rouge. Had plenty of them in the yard the last couple days. We have had temps in the teens and 20's with ice, some snow and freezing rain. Too damn cold for Louisiana _______________________________________________________ And no, junior not being able to hold still for 5 seconds is not a disability. | |||

Before this winter storm here in the Texas Hill Country, they were coming through by the bagillions! They were everywhere - ground, trees and they sky. I don't ever remember seeing as many in my life as this year. I notice this stuff since one of my biggest hobbies is birding. They are still here in this cold and snowy weather, but not nearly as many as before the cold snap. Retired Texas Lawman | |||

This has been an interesting winter for birdwatching here in SC. My yard has had the largest flocks of robins I have ever seen. To go along with the robins, last week, I opened the back door and saw the ground covered with blue jays. I typically see those by themselves or maybe a pair. To see and hear hundreds at one time was an interesting sight. "Prepared in mind and resources" | |||

7 degrees outside now. While we had some yesterday, I'll have to wonder if they'll make it. Probably I guess. | |||

Fact: Not all robins migrate. Some, even in the northeast, will stay for the winter. If you're goin' through hell, keep on going. Don't slow down. If you're scared don't show it. You might get out before the devil even knows you're there. NRA ENDOWMENT LIFE MEMBER | |||
