My Spring Robin Spring is in the air . . . what happened to Winter?

Spring begins.  Here in the Mid Atlantic United States, we barely had Winter.  Not that I am complaining but a little snow would have been nice . . . enjoy the early Spring. 
My Spring Robin by Anne Rockwell, Harlow Rockwell (Illustrator)
Before finding the robin she is searching for, a child discovers other interesting fauna and flora in her backyard. Before she finds "my spring robin," she encounters a variety of signs of the new season in her backyard: a toad and an earthworm; crocus, forsythia, magnolia, violets, and daffodils blooming; and fiddlehead ferns emerging.
