[Chat] Harbingers of Spring!

[Mary Rawson]

Up until 5 years ago, I lived in Williamsburg, Va (and prior to that, in 
CT).  Every Feb., around Valentine's Day, huge flocks of Robins would stop a 
day or two in Williamsburg on their trip from the south back to the north 
(CT, and points farther north).  It seems Spring will be early this year. 
I'll tell my Mom to keep a look-out in CT!  Mary

Kathleen,
I have heard the same type of reports, ...about all the robins in the area 
at
this time of year, ...from numerous other folks.  I wonder what is going on?
Does anyone else have any additional information?

Regards, Arjay
