Some are associated with the season for biological reasons; some are associated for social reasons, such as history or myth.Here are a few associations.Robin: spring (sign of spring)tree frogs: summer (that's when you hear them)Geese: fall (they fly south in the fall)
Arctic hare: winter (they are white, and almost invisible in the snow)
Some cultures associate other animals with specific seasons; China does this.
