A Robin made a nest in a very unlikely place in the front of my house
She constructed her nest about 3 ft. off of the ground in the evergreens that i have there
My evergreen bushes are pretty wild and untrimmed-I like them that way and apparently this Robin does too
Unfortunately as nature is often very selective with wild creatures-only one baby of the three hatchlings survived and is thriving
He evidently got the lions share of the food
I believe that she has been feeding these babies on her own-I haven't seen an evidence of a male helping out but then i have no real knowledge of Robins raising their young and if this is unusual or the norm with Robins

I also would like to add that Momma Robin has been very tolerant of me and my picture taking

Here are the best pics that I have gotten to date in a period of a few weeks
The camera is a Kodak EzShare Z710 and I just love it for ease of use and quality of pics
I hope that you all enjoy the pics
