This past Sunday I saw a small flock of Black Birds on top of my tulip poplar. Earliest I can remember.
Any body else seen any summer migratory birds.

We have so far. Just two weeks. One in early November and mid January. Next ten days doesn't show any real cold. Just one day next week a little cooler.

If you look @ the National Weather Service data for the next few weeks, it shows above normal temps and above normal rainfall. Will that hold? Who knows... www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/ |

I have seen several flocks of Robins lately.
There may be a pattern here. I was the facilities mgr for a bank several years ago and my maintenance staff was responsible for snow removal at the main office location. It was about three acres of irregular shaped parking. I bought a new Polaris Ranger and plow to make us more efficient. Not one snowfall that next Winter. Then, I bought an ATV w/plow for the house. Same thing, no snow the first year. I sold that plow to the neighbor when we moved and bought a new one this past Fall. Haven't used it yet.

Been seeing robins all winter Got the same luck I swear if I bought a boat we’d have ice in June |

Yesterday I noticed some signs of spring that I don' t usually see the first week of February.    I was wondering if dandelions where starting to show up. Great news for beekeepers. |

Furthest thing from Spring here just north of Jeff City Missouri!!
Snow and sleet on top of ice nightmare!
Apparently serious multi trucks and vehicles accidents and slide offs have me sitting and idling for over an hour now!

I have two bluebird nest boxes and have not seen them yet. My guess it will be soon.
