Snow Birds Arriving Daily

Many folks around the world have heard about the weather here in the US over the past week. Here in Central Florida we have, as usual, avoided most of the unpleasantness and have just put on an extra sweater and an extra blanket. Today is warmer, cloudy with intermittent rain showers.

I took the opportunity between downpours to walk to the mailbox. Just outside my door, however, I was met with the sight of the latest arrivals from the frigid north.

 Nothing like a soak in the hot tub after a long flight. For my British friends, these are American Robins, which are quite different from your Robin Redbreast.
