TheBanyanTree: Robins, and me driving Miss Jazzy

[NancyIee at aol.com]

A rainy day, when other parts of the country wallow in snow.  I can do rain.  
I noticed my Bougainvilla has started blooming again along the fence, and the 
orchids in the trees. And robins. I saw robins in the pasture.  Living in the 
north for so many years, how could I ever forget the distinctive sound of 
their little songs?

I heard the robins  yesterday when I went out to check the water in the pond. 
There they were, flocks of fat and red-breasted birds, hopping about the wet 
sand shoreline of the pond. I don't know whether they were there for water or 
the tiny bugs that live around there.

This morning the robins were gone, but in their place came hundreds of 
finches.

Look out, you in the northland. The birds are ready to come home.
