Description I looked out my kitchen window this morning and there to my surprise was Mrs. Robin. Pretty early for her to arrive, and we still have lots of snow on the ground. She was back in the evening for a snack of left over crab-apples.

Thank you very much.
We don't need any more moisture of any kind here in Manitoba. They are preparing for some major flooding from the Red and Assiniboine Rivers. It could be a very ugly situation in the coming weeks.
Thanks for stopping by.
