Birds Nest Still Made Of Mostly Mud
3 Birds Hatched
For the past two weeks my brother and I have been watching a robin build its nest. Only a couple of days after the nest was completed there were three eggs in it and the next day there were four. A little more than a week later three of the eggs hatched. The egg that was laid last hatched last. Now the birds are about 5 days old and growing feathers.
Wow! All I can think of is WOW! The blue is...is...so...BLUE!
ReplyDeleteThat must have been a very exciting find!
Came over from Butternut Squash - your mum I'm guessing.
