Haven't seen one yet but heard it and also heard a Cardinal calling, there is an annual argument which tree they will be building a nest in. Crows are building a nest....
Hey looked up and there is bunch of Robins on the driveway, yeyyy saw my first Robin! :)
Also saw what I think is a Pigeon hawk screeching in the back, that I could do without.

I haven't seen a robin here yet outside of Thunder Bay, but on Good Friday spotted a male Red Wing Blackbird checking out my feeders. I didn't have any seed in them, but I soon did. I haven't noticed him again though. This is the earliest I have ever seen them back. They nest in our pond here. I guess the Robins will follow and be here soon, but wow they didn't leave this year until the end of November-beginning of December. I have never seen the robins here for that long before. I was trying to tell them to get going, as there was snow on the ground. Wow, times are changing.
