Have You Bought Frozen Cherries Yet?

Go to your local grocer and buy frozen cherries.  Thaw them for 1.5 minutes, cut them up, and feed them to the dying robins around your house if you’re in a winter state with dying robins.  You might just be able to save a few of them.  We’ve had two die today, according to my neighbors, but there are six living and thriving outside my house - all fighting one another for the cherries.  One got stuck upside down in a tree across the street - poor guy - that was fun rescuing him.  Thank God I have a neighbor who is a vet assistant, and another who is a former wildlife rescue guy.  Hopefully that tattered robin will survive. 

You’ll feel good doing something for a helpless robin, trust me.  Go to your local grocer and get some frozen cherries.
