I have a Bird in spring
Which for myself doth sing --
The spring decoys.
And as the summer nears --
And as the Rose appears,
Robin is gone.
Yet do I not repine
Knowing that Bird of mine
Though flown --
Learneth beyond the sea
Melody new for me
And will return.
Which for myself doth sing --
The spring decoys.
And as the summer nears --
And as the Rose appears,
Robin is gone.
Yet do I not repine
Knowing that Bird of mine
Though flown --
Learneth beyond the sea
Melody new for me
And will return.
by Emily Dickinson
The birds are singing every morning outside my door!

What an expression on that bird's face. LOL!
We have had a few resident robins that stayed around all winter. I don't know where they found food as they are not really seed eaters. They like ground worms or what we call fish worms when they can find them. I also discovered they would eat suet that fell after other birds pecked at hanging suet cakes. I saw three males here yesterday when it was raining.
Looks like the bird wanted to make sure you got his good side.
I LOVE Emily Dickinson's poetry!
Beautiful! I'm looking forward to that birdsong. ☺
Happy Tuesday.
Me too, EG!
Abe, I wasn't sure if this was a robin or another kind of bird. But we have had lots of red-breasted robins lately.
What a look he gave!!!Have a great day!

Nothing like the chirp of a songbird in spring! Nice capture.
It is so lovely to hear all the birds chirping and singing at this time of the year.
Love to wake up with birds chirping and singing !
LOVE that scowling mockingbird! great spring bird!
Great shot!! Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
Aha! It's a mockingbird, huh? I wasn't sure.
Songbirds in the morning make such welcome sounds.
Such a lovely bird, I miss seeing them. Your chosen verse is perfect.
I would love to hear her chirp in the early mornings!
