My apartment building is shaped like a horseshoe with a small grass courtyard. Within the courtyard are a half dozen small trees. They provide no shade and are popular with robins in all seasons. I have enjoyed sitting in my comfy chair during the winter and watch as the robins puff up their feathers to keep warm and snatch a berry once in a while. This particular afternoon, as I waited on my laundry, I noticed new growth is starting and seems to be in contrast to the shriveled up berries. So, out came the macro lens and the tripod. Yea, man, Spring is coming!
I will be in Canada again tonight for work. Yesterday morning we woke to a light dusting of snow and needed to de-ice the aircraft. But I know Spring is coming!!!! I just know it!!
