Spring is truly here!

March 26 I saw my first Robin of the season. While the return of the geese is one of the signs of spring for me it isn't really here until I hear or see my first robin.
This male was fun, as when I first heard him I said to Len, "That is a robin!" and immediately a chickadee chirped, to which Len said "no, it is a chickadee." Two more times that happened before Len finally heard the robin and then we saw him at the top of a spruce tree.
