Coming and Going

We had two conflicting bird sightings this morning:  a huge flock of geese, numbering above 50, honked overhead while we waited for the bus and about twenty robins were roosting in a nearby maple.

So, if the geese were heading southeast, it's about to be winter, right?  But robins, the state bird of CT, usually mean spring.

It was in the high 40s a few days ago, but tomorrow we are expecting 2-4" of snow.

We can't tell which season is coming or going.  And the birds seem as confused as we are.
