I wonder if they are called that anywhere else. I was looking outside my window right after getting home this morning and noticed a flock of them just hangning out across the street. The first thing I thought was, “It is almost Christmas, why haven’t they migrated yet?”. The second thought was a little scarier, “I wonder if they already have”.  I feel to young to be saying, “I remember way back when…” but I do remember that we used to have snow on Christmas here in Toronto.  If I got a toboggan for Christmas, I could (and did) use it on Christmas.  Oh well, It looks like dreaming is as close as I’m going to get to a white christmas this year.
