    Great shot of Mr. Robin! I have a robin on my blog today too, but not nearly as close-up as you were able to get... very nice.

    What a dapper fellow.

    I love your blog and your eye for detail.

    I can't remember if I've commented before, but I'm Carolyn and I've been reading for a few weeks.

    Ack! Grackles!

    My father used to call them "evil eyes". In french of course then he would have to translate.

    Laura,

    I hope the repair and your whole day went well! My daughter totalled her college car today....no one hurt, thankfully.

    Hi, Blue Ridge Gal,

    I will hop over to see your robin!

    Hi, Carolyn,

    Thank you for your kind words! Love the word "dapper". Nice to make your acquaintance!

    Hi, Gail,

    Thank you!

    Hi, Deb,

    You can say that again! It is great to have the robins back.

    Hi, troutay,

    Hmm....maybe the word is spelled the same in French? Grackles are OK....its starlings I don't care for.

    Hi, Poetikat,

    Thank you! And, that's amazing you have written a poem about grackles!!

    Hi, Deserthen,

    Oh, that's cool....the "coweat" word verification! Just perfect!

    I hope robins flock your way soon! I'd trade you a few for some of your warmer temperatures, I think.
