Robin Nesting by Adrian

We have seen lots of animals passing through our house namely pest squirrels, skunk, turkey, bald eagle, possum, mole, bunny rabbits, and all kind of birds. But for the first time, we witnessed an American Robin nesting under the gutter on the down spout of our house. It all started a few days ago when I noticed strings of grass and debris hanging on the down spout. Moving forward few days later, I saw something looking  like a nest. Look for yourself what I have discovered.

Guess what is inside? Robin egg blue..!
We feel very lucky to have so many animals near our house. Perhaps lottery winning is on our way!!!  It makes us feel like nature...! Anyway, I will post pictures when the Robin chick(s) is/are visible.  Stay tuned...!
