[madmom]

very cold here the last couple of weeks and when I was on my way into town today I saw a tree full of robins! I had to do a double take, I've never seen them here this early. There was about 12 of them and boy were they fluffed up, I think it was around 22 degrees here today and windy. :wow:

4. I didn't see them but I heard song birds last Monday here in Mass

Song Birds! In February! And we had flies in the house last month. Flies, in January, in Massachusetts. I have talked about hearing those birds all week.

7. They've been wintering in Southwest Ohio for years

No more are they harbingers of spring. What's creepy for me is how many of them gaggle in the same place. I've seen more than 12 -- a lot more -- at times in my yard.

9. I saw some in my yard last week too.

In the Chicago suburbs. Had to do a double take. It's been super cold here too. Today was the first day in a couple of weeks it's been above 10.

10. I see some are still in Florida.

And we only see them in the middle of winter.

This winter has them all screwed up.

11. Robins are not uncommon here in western WI in the winter.

If they can find a regular supply of food and shelter, some stay all winter.
