They're back!

Yup, the robins are back! They cleaned up their nest, and then they used it again!

We've got 4 more beautiful blue eggs! I will post again once something new comes up with them!

Another Update

So, I forgot to update this, but I scared the birds out of the nest when I dropped a shovel under the nest last week. 3 flew out, the fourth remained for a little while, but then it flew away too. But, SHOOF!!! It was a close one; I almost got pooped on!!!

So that's the bird update for now. Our robins are acting weird, though, so we might have baby birds again.

Baby Update!

Just wanted to post this pic real quick so you guys could see how our babies are doing. (Sorry about the blurriness.)

Yup, they're still pretty ugly, but not as much as before. Well, that's all for now. I'll post again in a few days.

Baby birds!!!

Yesterday, I took a peek in the nest, and we finally have 4 tiny baby birds!!!! When I looked 2 days ago, there were still 4 robins-egg blue eggs in there (see first pic). Yesterday when I looked, three had hatched, but the fourth was still an egg (see second pic). I looked this morning, (see third pic) and now we have all 4 babies!!! My guess is that I looked yesterday right after the first 3 hatched, and the fourth hatched right after.

Well, that's all. I just wanted to share this because it's so exciting!! I will post again when something new happens.

Pencil Fun!

I was emailed this one time (and would give credit if I could), and thought it was amazing, so I thought I'd look it up again and post it here. This guy carves pencils, and he carves all sorts of stuff...

...from the alphabet to a mailbox, to a shoe, hearts, or a saw.

Well, that's all for now! I'll be posting again soon, because the robins are getting close to hatching!!

The robins are back!

So, you remember last year when I posted about the robins on the porch, and the baby fell out of the nest? So the robins came back again this year, and they're on the porch again, except on the other side this time...

So Lindsey climbed up yesterday to see if there was anything in it yet, since we've seen the daddy bird working for a couple of weeks. Sure enough, there are 4 robins-egg blue eggs in it!!

We think that they were laid last week, and the incubation step takes 12-14 days. So, if we're right, we'll have baby birds next week! I'll post again when something new happens!!!

Merry Christmas!!!

I just wanted to post this today and say a big Merry Christmas to you all!! I hope everyone has a great day, whether or not it turns out to be white one! ;-)

Merry Christmas!
