Both of these are very nice. I love when they return here every year, it is a true signal that Spring has arrived -- but they stayed well into January, for some reason. So I'm not sure when they will return this time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3946649652245671051.post-60832886307123504792008-03-25T11:35:00.000-04:002008-03-25T11:35:00.000-04:00Being English transplanted to Canada, I know that ...Being English transplanted to Canada, I know that the American Robin and the English Robin are different spieces of birds.

I see these Robins of your on many blogs now. A while back I thought all Robins were like our small chubby ones we see on Christmas cards.

LOL<BR/><BR/>Here, where I live in SW Ohio, they one Robin will often claim a crab apple tree on which still clinging to frozen branches is last year's freeze dried fruit. They eat them and guard the tree. It is much like your photo shows with the sumach.<BR/><BR/>Have a nice week.<BR/><BR/>Abraham Lincoln in Brookville, OhioAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
