Can you see them?

Can you see the baby birds?  Look hard. Do you see them? 

Of course you don't...they left their nest sometime this afternoon and have flown off.
I came home for lunch to let Kota out for a quick run and noticed that momma robin was nowhere to be seen. I heard no babies peeping for worms.  I looked up and found a quiet nesting area.  The babies have left their nest to begin their own lives.  I hope they will stay around the yard so I can listen to their pretty songs So far this year, each gutter had a Robin's nest in it and Grampy and I have seen three sets of peeps become robins.  Isn't life wonderful!!!  Have a wonderful day my raviolis.  Grandma-ma loves you.

Momma on her nest

Good Morning, my Monday raviolis. Earlier this week I shared with you the next building that has been going on around our deck area.  Well, momma Robin finally laid some eggs and now she is busy sitting on her nest keeping those eggs nice and warm.

Can you see her high up in her nest?

Here is a closer picture of her.  Why she chose such a busy part of our deck to place her nest makes me wonder?  Every time we walk outside she leaves the nest and sits on the deck edge until she feels we will not harm her.  She is not frightened of us, but she is cautious.
Momma sitting on the edge of the deck until she is comfortable that we will not hurt her eggs.  Grandma-ma sat and read on the deck yesterday and the Robin was sitting on her nest so I think we may get some hatching soon.  When the eggs hatch I will take pictures of the hungry babies for you.  Have a wonderful Monday my happy ravs. Grandma-ma
