On the walk into work this morning I saw two Robins. They looked a little tired, and hungry, but it was great to see those flashy red breasts and think about warmer weather.
A bit later on, closer to the river, there was a small group of Cardinals sitting together in a tree. They were chirping and flitting about the branches, excited, it seemed, at the prospect of spring on its way. I hope the Cardinal that’s been nesting near our house for the past couple years comes back this spring. I suppose I should also get the Wren house cleaned out so it’s ready when they hit town again.
