Was out walking around in the yard and I spotted this robin sitting on a nest about 6-7 feet up in my pine tree in the backyard. I will not be able to see the eggs because she is too far up in the tree. But at least I caught this photo and hopefully she will have a successful brood.
So cool to find bird nests in the yard. I am sure there are more. But I cannot do any ladder climbing right now, so I will have to watch from a distance. The robin eggs are such a pretty blue but maybe I can find an other not lower in the tree to see soon. There are many robins around, hopefully there will be other nests.

Any bird watchers out there? I know a few of you. Seen anything cool lately in your yard?

@CarolDM Last year we lived in a townhouse and a pair of sparrows built a nest in our dryer vent. We tried and tried to discourage them by using a water bottle and squirting at the vent but they were determined. I was so worried and didn't want to use the dryer but had to. One day I heard the little chirps and the mama bird wore her little self out feeding her babies. The father bird took guard in the bush right beside the vent. I still worried that those babies were going to die from the heat. One morning, they were gone. The mama bird never came back, neither did the father. I don't know what happened. I hope that they all flew away during the night.

Had a pair of bluebirds in the front yard this morning. They are enjoying the pumpkin seeds out there.
