Raven in fog.
Thirties (F) this morning, with the whole of the world cloaked in a blue fog. Heard—then saw—a pair of ravens. Saw about a million robins. Not really. But a hundred, at least. Jack and I chased them up and down the hill.
American Robin.
The sun emerged after a while, and the temperature rose, and another inch or two of snow melted.
Sure were a lot of robins up there in that blue fog.
