Backyard Birds of Michigan Mug — Labeled Cardinal, Chickadee, Goldfinch & Robin (11oz)

The first robin is a Michigan event, and it is usually a misunderstanding.

American Robins don't all leave — plenty spend the whole winter in Michigan in wooded cover eating berries, out of sight of the lawn. The famous "first robin of spring" is often just the moment they come back out onto the grass. The Robin is Michigan's state bird, and it is on this mug.

On this mug: Northern Cardinal · Black-capped Chickadee · American Goldfinch · American Robin

Each illustration is labeled with the bird's name. The Black-capped Chickadee finds the feeder first, usually within a day of it going up. The Northern Cardinal is the last one on it at dusk. The American Goldfinch fades from lemon-yellow to olive-buff every autumn and back again every spring, which catches people out every single year.

The mug. 11 oz white ceramic · glossy finish · comfortable C-handle · dishwasher and microwave safe · lead- and BPA-free · printed to order in the USA, ships in 2–5 business days.
