04/03/14 Grif.Net – First Robins of Spring

In Wyoming it is JUST beginning to show signs, thru the snow, of spring. I
noticed the first robins of spring trying to peck for food through cold
earth. Reminded me of the story (think we told it fifteen years ago on the
Grif.Net), about two robins that were sitting in a tree.

“I’m really hungry,” said the first one. “Me, too,” said the second. “Let’s
fly down and find some lunch.”

They flew to the ground and found a nice plot of open ground full of worms.
They ate and ate and ate and ate ’til they could eat no more.

“I’m so full I don’t think I can fly back up to the tree”, said the first
one.

“Me either. Let’s just lay here and bask in the warm sun,” said the second.

“O.K.” said the first.

So they plopped down, reveling in the sun. No sooner than they had fallen
asleep, a big fat tomcat snuck from behind and gobbled them up.

As he sat washing his face after his meal, he thought to himself, “I really
love baskin’ robins.”
