Actually, the robin is a poor harbinger of spring in the northeast
because a few manage to winter there.  In Toronto, we have they year
round, with numbers in the winter very depedent upon the berry crop.
Nonetheless, there did seem to be some movement into the area during
the warm weather in late January.
