Robin

I always think winter is over when the Robins return. I saw a robin earlier in the week and another one this morning while taking Fergus out for his morning walk. He was all puffed up, I'm sure to keep warm in the frosty grass. It would have been a good picture. Of course I didn't have my camera. By the time I got Fergus back in and my camera in hand, Mr. Robin was gone. But he looked a lot like this one from a couple of years ago.

Wonderful photo of Mr. Robin! We haven't seen any yet but I hope they appear soon!

Nice shot! The robins don't totally leave here during the winter so seeing them doesn't always mean spring for us.

I usually see my first robin in February as they're passing through on their way north. I wish we had them all summer, but I guess they don't like the heat and humidity.

Robins don't like the heat and dry of where we live here in low desert Arizona.

I miss seeing them in the spring, so I'm glad to stop by your blog and see your neat capture!

Thanks for linking.
