It’s definitely spring! I now get woken up at 5:30 AM and have trouble getting back to sleep because of a very enthusiastic robin right outside my window a couple of feet away from my head. 🐦🔊

@Kistaro I tend to leave my window open once it gets warm. And there was a specific bird call I kept hearing over and over. It was random enough to grab my attention and keep me part-awake.

Finally day I saw what was making it. Damn robins. :-/

@toybold A robin outside my window in the summer was legitimately one of my motivations for installing five thousand dollars of air conditioning last year.

@Jacel @Kistaro @toybold I was *so confused* by the "sweet little chirps" of the robin in "The Secret Garden."
*looks outside at giant orange bird SCREAMING*
*reads "sweet little chirps"*
*looks outside*

@Jacel @green @Kistaro

The part that bugged me was the call was four chirps in a row, then either another chirp, or two chirps. The inconsistency was maddening to the part of my brain that attends to that sorta thing.
