Robin

Robins are one of the most recognizable birds, especially the males with their red-orange bellies.  

They love the sweetness of fruits and sometimes ingest large quantities of fermented berries.   

This could be why these birds have been known to stumble as they walk.  

Often associated with the first signs of spring, robins appear 

when the ground thaws and worms become available.   

Just as the warming of the season brings forth new life, 

so does the robin remind you of new beginnings.  

Maybe it is time to start fresh and try something different.  

Or perhaps you need to learn from an experience and take an alternate path.  

Either way, the robin signals hope of better things to come!  (S. Finelli)
