wildlife update


Does anyone care about this? I don't know. But the eggs in CT's tree have hatched and we are now the proud observers of four healthy baby robins. The kids really enjoy looking at them every day and talking to them through the window all of the time. I hope that even if you don't care about this miracle of life going on in my front yard, you will appreciate the picture since I nearly lost a finger trying to take it. Turns out robins are rather protective of their young, and they do not appreciate some crazy lady smashing her body into the tree to get a picture...

Are you kidding? I love this! I was hoping you'd do an update. ;)
Isn't it cool how their new feathers have a hint of blue in them, like the eggs they hatched from? I wish we had more trees.

I care, Janice (or whatever your online name is), I care!

Gee whiz, you guys, thanks! Gigi: I hadn't noticed but I will be going back in the tree to look! Amy: you crack me up. This is going to be the summer we actually DO get together. I can feel it!
