Look at this big fat robin that's been hanging around our cherry tree the last few days! These "imposter" robins come from Nova Scotia, and they've been showing up around January/February. The "real" robins don't come until March or April. Even though I know he's not the usual kind of robin that is a sign that spring is almost here, I can't help but feel optimistic when I see him. This has been one long, cold, dumb winter, and I won't miss it when the last patch of ice melts!
