The Robin Red Breast says Happy May Day!

Today while I was on a conference call, I stared out the window into my back garden and watched a Robin hunt for worms. The Robin belly puffed out before him, I am sure filled with many worms. I watched as he or she dug in the dirt, raising dust bits everywhere, in search of worms. I watched her success as she yanked and pulled up a mile long worm from the murky mud. While watching and listening to the business call I happened to look over at the calendar. It proclaimed MAY 1. Ah May Day at last, and how perfect that I celebrated by watching the Robin! At last, though the snow still prevails, I found I had hope for Spring! Kim Power Stilson
