Shortly after that ridiculous cold polar vortex had passed, I glanced out the window and was quite surprised to see two Robins in the tree outside the window!
American Robins are a summertime bird for us here in Wisconsin. They fly south in the winter as soon as it starts getting cold here and they can no longer find the worms and grubs that they like to eat.
Traditionally, one of our first signs of spring is when the Robins return. We joked about this pair... maybe they live all summer at the north pole so they think this is south?
But even if they are a confused pair, they were enjoying the berries that were still hanging on the buckthorn trees!
