Today's pictures/First views of baby robins

The mother had been away, and flew into the nearby lilac just as I was taking the photos. You may click on them to get a better look. I was standing up on the railing. :<)

  1. Oh, how sweet! There is nothing like the whispering peeps of baby birds. I have some baby wrens just outside my kitchen window that serenade me when I am washing dishes. I'll be sad when they fledge.
    If Momma Robin allows, keep us up to date on their developement. :)

  2. Your adorable photos reminded me of this Robert Louis Stevenson quote:
    Soon the frail eggs they
    shall chip, and upspringing
    Make all the May woods
    Merry with singing!

    Merry, indeed!

    Alison, I love, love, love this. I had never heard it. Thanks so much.

I am changing how I post your much appreciated comments. Since I began the blog, I've waited to post them until I had the opportunity to respond. Sometimes that's taken a while, so I've decided to moderate them and post them as soon as possible, and then I'll respond when I get a chance.
Also, you may comment on any posts, no matter how old, and I will receive notice.
