How's your birdbath activity lately? I've had to fill mine up twice a
day thanks to all the thirsty robins. They just seem to like to drink
and not bathe in it but the titmice do and that splashes the water out
faster.

Robins do seem to be particularly "messy" birds even pooping on the seed
feeder (which they never eat from -- just land on top of it sometimes)
as well as the ground but I try to overlook it (and overstep it). I
guess it's the robins doing it, I didn't notice it until they started
coming around the past few weeks.

Apparently these robins are year-round residents, no waiting until
spring to see these guys.

I haven't seen any Robins. I generally don't see them until Spring and
then only briefly.

Lots of bird bath activity lately but just the usual year round suspects.
