Today I heard the robins territorial song in my back yard. When I went outside to check on my tulips, I saw two or three male robins in the trees. I also spotted a robin on the ground, eating, in a small patch of bare ground. Most of the ground in my area is still covered with snow. Some more snow is expected tomorrow night. If the ground becomes totally covered again, I will put out raisins, soaked over night in water, to help the spring robins that have arrived in my yard. It's wonderful to have the robins singing, because the weather certainly isn't making it feel like spring. Holly Cerullo, retired teacher.
