 | | | Photo Jeff Heyman | | | | | | The robins don't seem to realize that it is still winter for five more weeks. With flowers and fruit trees budding earlier and earlier, colorful robins have invaded our Lamorinda gardens. Flocks, like these seen here enjoying young apricot blossoms in an Orinda yard, have been stripping trees of their freshly sprouted fruit. Perhaps drunk on all that fruit, the robins seem to think spring has sprung. Sure, it may still be winter technically, but from the sound of birdsong in our gardens and the neighborhood invasion of robins, spring in Lamorinda is right around the corner. - Jeff Heyman |
