I was standing at the back door overlooking Fargo Brook when I heard the unmistakeable call of robins. Grabbing my camera and long lens, I headed outside and found them over by the winterberry bush munching on a few remaining berries. They took to the willow over the pond as I approached and were nice enough to pose for a few shots.

Yup, I’m with you on that Carol. Of course, given the weirdness this year, I fully anticipate cranky snowstorms going late… Or not…

Oh, yes – spring is on its way.

This “winter” it’s kind of hard to tell… Although I just did see a redwing blackbird!
