On her own
with just two wings and a prayer
she chose the industrial side of town
to raise her family.
What was she thinking??

Oh, how sweet!
They are so small and delicate. I hope the dogs don't get them. Beautiful photos as usual.
What a beautiful color! And what a compliment from Momma Robin, she loves your farm! 🙂
Yes, that color blue is my favorite! So gorgeous.
Lovely lovely.
What bright eggs! Your kids must've missed those in the egg hunt 😉
oh my goodness! how beautiful is that? (i'm incredibly envious of your little green vehicle). 🙂
We have a mourning dove perched over our HOT TUB…..what was SHE thinking?????
Oh no! She wasn't thinking, but you'll have to. Is there anyway to put a temporary protective screen of some sort in front, but open on top so she can fly in and out?
Now I can't remember who it was, but last year a bird built a nest on her front door wreath.
At least you'll have a "birds-eye view" of the whole nesting/hatching process.
Awwww – (Hunter speaking here) 🙂
Amazing! Hurry and hatch little eggs, so that all are safe!

Two wings and a prayer is right! Birds have faith, they build in the most difficult places and expect the best…
Maybe she figured it was safer inside the fence than out — lots of scary things out there! 🙂
Love the blue in the eggs. Great photos, Karen.
That is amazing! Brave… but amazing! Gorgeous photos!
Love it!! So sweet!
Oh, how wonderful for you! So pretty 🙂
Our barn Swallows are back! They will fly in and out of the barn all day, over and over. Until they choose a spot to build their nest. I just love how they come back each year. Messy? YES!
But so worth it!!
Wonderful day to you, Karen!
xo, misha
And what about predators? That fence post is not very high off the ground! What was she thinking??? Maybe one of you new peeps will help take care of them, sorta like baby sitting… or not.
I'll be expecting you to take a photo a day, to capture the entire process! If you don't want to blog them… e them to me! I'd recommend some large hole chicken wire to put around that, for protection! Momma can still get in and out, but it might keep predators away. Just a thought!
Precious! Are they robin's eggs?
XO,

Awww and oh oh and oops and oolala. Not the best place for a nest. Hopefully all will be well 🙂 Aren't birds nests incredible structures? I'm always amazed by the beauty of them.
Oh wow, thats crazy, and cool as heck
Are you insinuating that the girl now lives on the 'other side of the tracks'? LOL OH, poor thing. But ya gotta admit she does have cute little home there.
How ya been?

How beautiful! Maybe she was thinking she found the nicest spot in town to raise her family!
Oh, she chose the perfect spot to raise her babies! That color has to be one of the loveliest on earth!

I always think that those birds who choose very poor nesting sites are the teenage parents of birdom…they will learn the hard way…
