He's the Ladies' First Choice, with a Laugh in his Voice

It's warmed up considerably outside today; the snow was melting and the birds were singing and taunting me from way up in the tree tops.
I was outside for about an hour; just waiting for a decent opportunity to get a decent bird photo, but once again they've vexed me.
This was the best I could get; and again I had to process it quite a bit to get somewhat of a decent look to it.
I would have stayed around longer trying to get a photo in, but the school nearby was let out and all the birds flew away.
That, and the dampness of the snow melting was starting to get to me. Since it was above zero degrees Celsius I figured a coat was not necessary so I was out in just a light sweater, and what a liberating feeling that was!
It's been quite a while since a coat wasn't a must to step outside! I know it's overly optimistic and I'll curse myself later, but today felt like spring! Maybe that's just in my head; I'm so tired of winter!
Hope everyone has had a good day! Time for me to go have some homemade soup to fight the damp chill!
