The appearance of a robin is considered a harbinger of spring.
It is among the first birds to sing at dawn, and its song consists of several discrete units that sound like “Cheerily, cheer up, cheer up, cheerily, cheer up”!
Another wonderful song bird is the Yellow Warbler and it’s song is a rapid musical
“Sweet-sweet-sweet-I’m-so-sweet.”
