winter weirdness

[lauradi7dw]

There are about a dozen robins flitting from tree to tree in the back yard. This on the same day that I bashed myself in the abdomen while shoveling snow. It's admittedly above freezing now, and on Sunday (2 snowfalls ago) I saw some crocus shoots sticking up, but I don't think even the most optimistic bird should consider it spring yet. Are they lost? On their way to somewhere else?
