Hi Tweeters,
There’s a nice flock of 12 male robins picking busily at the bare earth
under the pines outside my window, and some up in the trees. I know they
haven’t arrived from anywhere particularly far away, but it’s a cheerful
sight nonetheless. They’re lunging so vigorously into the ground that there
are glimpses of their “underwear” (under tail coverts),which I find
amusing. Not to “poor me”, but I’m essentially housebound due to chronic
illness, so much of my birding has been from my apartment for quite a while
now.
On a side side note, I moved here two years ago in April, and it was very
birdy. Last year, almost nothing. I’m curious what this year will bring.
