Robins

 For the past week or so, Robins have been as thick as fleas on a stray pup here at the Boggy Thicket.  Apparently, we're not unique - the Birds of Texas group on Facebook has reports from all over South Texas mentioning larger than normal flocks, first seen in years, etc.

And forget that "first Robin of Spring" nonsense.  Here at the Boggy Thicket, Robins show up in the dead of Winter - late January or early February, and are long gone by Easter.
