First Robin Of Spring? Heck They
Haze Been Around All Winter Long

Redwood county birds can take
it.
Max Arndt living southwest of
town, had a robin in his evergreen
tree all winter until about week
ago. Maybe it was the one that
proved his stamina by perching
ON an ice cream freezer on the
John Billie porch in Redwood
Falls this week.
Rural mail carrier L. P. Winter
reports seeing a meadowlark on
the Harold Stedman farm adjoin-
ing the Arndt place. The section
apparently has a Florida climate.
Everyone but the newspapers
enjoys seeing birds here all win
ter that should have left for the
south in the fall. Their unconven-
tional lingering during the snow
season positively ruins ''first robin
of spring" stories.
