I saw the first robin of Spring today on a tree outside the window of my Linguistic Theory class.
Thank you, thank you.
Hey! I’ve been here the entire time!
Robin
Yes, but do you inflate your bosom and flutter from tree to tree, singing lustily, in single-digit-centigrade weather?
If so, you may have a promising career ahead of you.
I haven’t seen Robin since she moved out and started taking Lithium.
Where DO they get those tiny little snowshoes?
Well, my bosom is inflating (consequence of pregnancy), and if I fluttered from tree to tree in single-digit weather, the branches would break and I’d be committed. However, I have been known to sing lustily.
So, two out of three ain’t bad.
Robin
Well it wasn’t me you saw either.
I’ve never even seen a real robin (bird, that is) 
Last week there was bare grass and robins around here. This week, I’m guessing that a couple of those lumps under the snow might be robins, poor little bastards.
I discovered a robin nesting on my patio today. We have one egg so far!
Oh… When I saw the thread title, I thought Burt Ward had finally surfaced.
What… I’m not that old… Hmph!

It is spring, indeed.
A saw my first Robin of spring on Easter Sunday.
He was making an awful ruckus, which made me look out the window.
Just as I’d registered the thought “Hey first robin of Spr—”
A hawk flew out of the sky and grabbed him up. :eek:
No kidding.
I’m now left wondering what that means. I have a strange sense of foreboding now…
Lately, one of our roommates keeps shouting
"Hey! A cardinal! How pretty!
or
“Look! See that bluebird? WOW! He really is almost neon blue!”
and I see…
nuthin.
She’s pointing at a specific tree, or a two-foot wide section of fence, and still I got nuthin.
Either I need glasses or she’s been hitting the crack pipe.
Ahem
