Our neighborhood was invaded by a flock of robins last evening. There were about 150 of them. I tried to catch as many as I could in some photographs. However they didn't like me taking their picture. So they shit all over Sparky's car.
So many robins...so little spring! I'm always amazed when I see a robin pulling a worm out of the ground...it's like they dig their heels in (do robins have heels?) & just keep at it. Not like other birds that are skittish & fly away when we're near.
Probably the robins are one of those wild tribes that think you're stealing their souls if you take their picture. A little more cultural sensitivity would be nice Dr. Monkerstein!

What are they, Amish?
Wow - your own version of The Birds!
I hope like hell they are coming back up North!
I need some Spring and Robins are a sure sigh. :P

I have never seen that many Robins in my life, let alone in one place.
Whoa. Very cool. I mean the sheer numbers, not their reactive pooping.
I love how robins freeze when they see you. They're all "if I don't move, maybe that clown over there won't notice me...."

I think Sparky should refer to her vehicle as the 102nd Dalmatian.
