robin red breast

Posted by amy (Nanaimo, BC, Canada) on 27 March 2008 in Animal & Insect.

I'm digging through the archives again. Reminiscing. A couple years ago a robin family built their nest in a spruce tree where the branch hung over our back deck. We tried to keep our distance from this little family as the parents took turns warming their eggs then keeping the babies fed when they hatched. Although I was itching to take copious pictures of their everyday activity I gave them their space and only intruded on one day when one of the robins was nestled in the nest.

You can view my gallery of images and calendar for sale at: cute but stupid . I'm slowly adding more to the site and if there is something in my portfolio you would like to purchase but is not available on my site just contact me and I'll make it available.

I appreciate all visits and comments and thank you always... ;-)
