ROBIN'S EGG BLUE

Just a little update on the beautiful bit of nature's architecture by our back door.  I was afraid that maybe our mother robin had abandoned the nest since I hadn't seen her for a few days.  Maybe she was taking her last few flights of freedom before she would need to be confined to the nest to keep the eggs warm. 
Regardless, upon checking the nest today I got a picture of the first,
perfect, blue egg and I thought you'd like to see it too!
Beautiful!  Just think of the little baby robin that's developing and growing,
getting ready for its chance at the world inside that egg!

  5. We have trouble with Starlings destroying the nests and eggs of other birds. I hate to say I hate any bird,but the Starling is getting close to making me hate it.I have seen them,first hand, destroying the nests of other birds.
