This mother robin has sat outside our kitchen window, guarding her eggs night and day, for at least a week now. When it rains, she stretches out her wings to keep the nest dry.
What signs of spring have you noticed in your area? (Or, for our sub-Equatorial friends: signs of autumn?)

Aw, it’s so cute! I raised a baby robin a few years ago. We fed it tuna and kept it in a small pet cage until it could take care of himself (herself?). Robins have to be the most adorable baby birds.
As for spring, apparently it hasn’t noticed us yet. It’s snowed twice in the last three days
Baby robins *are* cute. Something about the way they sit there with their beaks wide open, ready to eat whatever you drop in…
I moved to the US nine months ago and I’ve never experienced spring really.. (Or snow even) One thing I noticed is everything became green almost overnight.. It was beautiful.. I am really enjoying experiencing all 4 seasons!
🙂 What part of the US are you in? Ohio (my state) gets the four seasons in full force, which I love – even winter. Some places, like Texas, see a lot less variety.
I live up north in New York state so I definitely get all 4 seasons in full force.. It is really beautiful.. Colors in autumn, white in winter and even more color in Spring. I guess it’s a little weird to go on about it but if you’ve never experienced it before (especially since I moved from south India where it’s always hot and green) you feel amazed!
Doesn’t sound weird at all. 🙂
