Monday, April 10, 2023 What Does the Robin Say?

~ Foodiness

If you look it up, birding books will tell you that one of the robin’s songs sounds like “cheerily, cheerily…” Pay no attention to those false interpretations – I’ve got the real scoop on it. By listening very carefully, I’ve divined that the robin actually has a very different message for us:

This one is for my friend Julie, who probably gets tired of hearing me sing that song to her. If you’re of a certain age, you’ll know that song, too.

If you want to contribute to the “Reforming the Lazy Artist” initiative, just ask and I will send you a small watercolor painting (that one is 4” x 5”). I’ll choose the subject. You can expect art of the same quality as above, i.e. fair to middling. But it’s free, so you can’t really complain.

If I don’t delete this post, I’ll be reforming the lazy blog post writer one post at a time…in the morning.

  1. ❤ ❤ ❤ I am not tired of hearing it (it doesn't happen very often – Dave has other ways of expressing the thought) and it brings back good memories of when we were younger. I will now listen to Robins more carefully! ❤

  2. After reading your blog post, I immediately went to YouTube to find that “classic” 70’s song sung by no-longer-teen-idol Bobby Sherman (who is pushing 80 years old!!). I listened to about 20 seconds of his one hit wonder….totally disappointing…at the time I thought it was quite the groovy song – but no longer. Such a despairing look back at my teenybopper-hood (even a short flashback!). I hate to say it, Lynnie, but it’s all your fault…🙄😇
