I saw a robin today in Lake Geneva. Usually don’t start seeing them until March. I didn’t know red wing blackbirds were winter birds. I never see them in winter. I see crows, sparrows and occasional cardinal.
In central Indiana, we have robins year-round, and cardinals, too. I sometimes see red-wing blackbirds by now, but haven’t seen them this year. My sister in Florida has Orioles at her feeders all winter until late April, when they head back up here. I miss their bright colors and always look forward to seeing them come back by May.
Well, who WOULDN’T want to hang out at Lake Geneva? *HEART*
I have a SIL that lives up near Tomah, WI. The years we have a ‘mild’ winter, she’s had Robins up there all winter long. Crazy!
