Red-winged Blackbirds are generally the first migrant here, too, but with a foot and a half of snow last week, -2° (-8° down in the valley) last night, and no real warm up in sight, they are late, and I don't' expect to see any until next week. My average first arrival date for them is Mar. 12. One time they didn't show until the last week of March. Completely unexpected was a pair of Wood Ducks last Wednesday, my earliest record for that species, in spite of one of the coldest winters on record.
Robins have been around all winter in pretty good numbers. Sandhill Cranes just started breeding in the State within the past 20 years, and before that they were vagrants. They start showing up in early April.
The only signs that spring is coming are Cardinals, Mourning Doves, and Titmice singing. Apparently they are more affected by daylight than by temperature.
And Crocuses! Usually I've found a few crocuses or snowdrops blooming by now; not this year.
