Day 166: The first ROBIN this year!!!!

Hi again,
Today I am so incredibly thankful for seeing the first robin this year!!!! This morning I was outside for a walk and I spotted the robin hopping along in the snow and I could not believe my eyes!! If this isn't a sign of spring coming then I don't know what is! It is so incredibly wonderful hearing the robin singing again! It has been too long since I have heard that sweet song. I have to admit I am longing for more variety than the chickadees, magpies and crows all the time. lol Seeing the robin this morning gave me more hope that spring could come again! lol I did grab my camera and got a photo of the robin even though it wasn't very close. I will be sure to post it either tonight or tomorrow hopefully. I do feel bad for the poor robin though-it must be confused why there is still so much snow on the ground.
On a not so exciting note-flies are starting to appear as well as spiders. Ewww the creepy crawlies are thawing out...er.. coming out of hiding. lol I actually killed two spiders already. But it means spring and I love signs of spring. The creepy crawlies are food for the birds so I must be thankful for them as well I guess. *sigh* lol As you can possibly tell, seeing the robin today was really exciting!!! I do love the sound of birds and winter can be so silent while they are gone. But they are starting to come back and I am very thankful for that and super excited!
