Robins Return!

I just came in from my walk with Casey, and I heard the strident tones of the first Robin of the year! They usually come back to this area sometime in January (sometimes as early as the third of the month), but this is the first time I've heard them this year. In the city, you usually don't see Robins until March or April, but they always come back early to the forests in the rural areas. So nice to hear them!
