Yes, we will be on the ATV soon, making the rounds and cleaning out all of our Bluebird houses! :)

I raised a baby Robin as a kid; found it in our window well and Mom let me keep it. We called the Zoo and they told us to feed it meat baby food that had been thinned with a little water. And Marvin ate - about every two minutes!

I managed to raise him to maturity (good training for my later, ‘Chicken Lady Days’) and he would ride around on my bike handlebars with me.

Of course, it was fleeting...as soon as he saw a Lady Robin all bets were off, LOL!

Now, every spring, Mom and I call one another when we spot the first Robin and say, “Marvin’s Back!” :)
