The Robins are back, they are in flocks running all over the yard.
We had a new visitor at the feeder this morning.
We started seeing these doves when we lived in Texas in the 1980's.
They are called the ring neck or Eurasian Dove.
The collared doves are native to Africa and Asia: pale, grayish fawn w/blue gray on the wing edge with red feet. They are larger then our native dove in the U.S.A.
Spring must be near.

We are enjoying the bird activity too this week. Have a good weekend Patsy.
We have Mourning Doves at our feeders, I haven't seen the Robins yet.
Yippee. Good news about the Robins. Spring can't be too far behind.
We had early Robins here too. I think it was because there was more snow in the states south of us and they were getting hungry. The dove is so pretty. Have a wonderful weekend.
One day closer to spring now.
I do believe spring is near but I also think we will get one more really cold snap - - don't you?
Good Morning Patsy, I have been seeing a lot of our birds coming back, and love to be outside and hear our native dove call its mate. Yes. Spring is near.
Enjoy your weekend,
Hugs,
Sue
I haven't seen any Robins yet, but soon I hope.
