for the past week or so i have been watching this pair of robins out in the yard.poor things ..do they not know it is still winter?  lol there is several feet of snow on the ground still so there is no grass for them to peck at.


i did cut up an apple for them but they didn't like it- the squirrels have been eating it. next week when i get $$ i will buy some bird feed & stuff.they are pretty fat so i know they are getting food somehow.


now that my sister is gone i can put out feeders :O) she did not care for all the birds in her yard.

Oh, no, the poor little birdies!! When birds get cold, they fluff out their feathers and it makes them look fat, so it could be that too. Good idea putting seeds out, good for you! Maybe it's a sign that spring will come early despite Ground Hog Day results! One can only hope!

I haven't seen any personally but at the Toronto Zoo they filmed about 10 of them on the ground - and boy were they fat!
