Robin's Nest


A pair of robins have been diligently building a beautiful nest in the center fork of our flowering crab-apple tree. Perfect in every way, it it ready for the first robin eggs. Just outside our window and at perfect height to peer in when on tip-toe, we'll enjoy the pair as they raise their young.

  5. What a neat picture! I love the tree full of Spring blossoms, and the little nest is the icing on the cake! What a joy it will be to watch the little ones hatch and grow! Hope we'll see more of this little family.

  6. How fun. I'm going to watch with you. I miss not having Carolina Wrens nesting on our porch this year. I so hoped they would return.

  10. I wanted to tell you that we just noticed a bird family, today, in a little bird house on our patio. We had planned on putting the house on a post in the garden and had just placed it on the baker's rack until we could get to that, but they don't seem to mind the temporary nature of their home. Two little birds, swallows, I think, taking good care of their babies. It reminded me of your post.

    Thank you so much for the sweet birthday message---you helped make my day!
