the robins of #madeira have become my sunrise and sunset heralds
one alights on either the tree in front of the window behind my pc monitor, or the light pole next to my front gate, and twitters his little heart out for about 5-10 minutes at dawn and at sunset every day
it is a plaintive song, not so silly as the blackbirds, and often they sound out in the distance, in parallel, but the robin is my herald of the changes of day and night
literally, when i am laying in my bed in the morning, and i hear the robin start, i'm like, "ok mister robin, i'll get up in a minutet"
