A few days ago I noticed birds flying into and out of a mountain ash tree on the perimeter of our property. The mountain ash has bright orange berries in the fall. I was surprised to find that the birds were robins. The next day we visited a farmer friend who also had mountain ash trees and there were robins there as well. Perhaps the robins rendezvous in mountain ashes and feast on the berries before starting south. They had better start soon as there is a winter storm warning for parts of Saskatchewan tomorrow and some of the snow may drift over here!
