Back in April we had so much rain and wind and storms that poor Ethel gave up building her nest in our flowering crabapple tree.
Later on we noticed a robins nest way back in the back of the yard and in a taller more substantial tree. Far enough back that we could not see or keep track of her.
Well last week "Ethel" shows up in our little flowering tree and rebuilds the original nest.
We are pretty sure its the same robin because she has some white markings on her breast that the others around don't have.
Here she is sitting in her NEW/OLD nest and
"YES" we peeked and there are 2 little blue eggs in there.
ANYWAY we are glad to have her back in our little tree where we can see her and can't wait to see the little ones heads looking out waiting to be fed.
