Hmmm...I posted this on Mar 25:
"Saw a bluejay outside the condo the other day. Always like those sightings because we don't see them that often around here. We do get lots of robins and cardinals, the other harbingers of spring."

No need to shout, you are a little late to be declaring yourself a winner.

No one posted that they saw a robin. Deb said she posted somewhere that she saw a blue jay and made a vague reference to robins. Too vague and ambiguous. Plus, she did not start a thread. I knew some of you would try to declare a prior victory, but you all lost. LOSERS!

I saw one yesterday in Loveland, Colorado. I never had robins in California. I didn't know they were predictors of spring. A green tinge popping out on the ground means spring to me.
