This time of year, American Robins start to sing their dawn song about an hour before sunrise. Not just one American Robin, all of them in the neighborhood.<\/p>\n

The dawn song of the robins can bother some people, but it doesn’t bother me a bit. I love hearing them.<\/p>\n

Yesterday morning, about an hour before sunrise, I sat outside on the deck, listening to all the robins singing. I decided to head inside, grab my phone, and record their song. I\u2019d never done that before and figured it was high time I did.<\/p>\n

My recording picked up the song of the American Robins, a Northern Mockingbird, and the neighbors rooster crowing.<\/p>\n

My fascination with American Robins started when I was a young girl and has never faded. They still make me smile, and now I can take beautiful photos of them too.<\/p>\n

Lately, I’ve been seeing more and more robins foraging in the grass, flitting through the trees, and acting feisty with each other. Maybe they’ll have a great breeding season, I sure hope so.<\/p>\n

Happy Birthday to my oldest son, William. I love you!<\/p>\n

Life is<\/em> good.<\/p>\n
