Spring forward….
Don’t know about the rest of the world, but here in the States it’s time to push our clocks one hour ahead.
An American Robin…

This is sweet…and so spring-ish!
Tried to capture a fox in a white field today and wasn’t as successful as you with the bird.
A fox would be a great deal harder to capture. These guys are generally the first sign of spring arriving. They arrive in large numbers and aren’t at all shy of people. I shot this one from my kitchen window out in my backyard. So it was almost too easy.
I believe its just North America… this was a change made by the Bush administration to increase Daylight Saving Time by 1 month (3 weeks in spring & 1 week in Fall). So we’re slightly off the rest of the world. Personally I just like longer days
I never found my days to be any longer. Back when I was commuting, I’d just start to get a hint of daylight on my drive to work in the spring when they’d push the clocks forward making me drive in the dark for a longer another month (?or thereabouts?). But what I hate most is the way it messes with my sleep. I have a hard enough time without having them changing the clocks twice a year. At least it’s a bit more bearable now that I’m retired, but I still don’t like it.
Living in Illinois, then Minnesota, and now Washington one of the first signs of spring has been seeing the first Robin. Your photos are great, thank you for sharing.
My pleasure indeed. It’s always a pleasure seeing those first robins no matter where they pop up.
