    I have a bird feeding station in the garden and I feel the same as you when I see the birds. I love to see robins as winter draws in, make my soul smile..and I'm not usually spiritual at all. :-)

    Robins in February - that would be a miracle in CT! I hope there's not another blizzard!

    We saw a robin about a week ago. I was shocked because it was freezing out. The robin was really fat too.

    Saw Canada geese yesterday, heard a flock the day before. Wonderful sound to hear after all the horrible weather everybody has had because it makes you know that spring is on the way.
