#AmericanRobin

Robin's nest in the Gravenstein apple tree update. I saw two robins sitting in the nest this afternoon as I was walking by to turn some water off. I tried to take their picture but they got off the nest and protested. I decided to take a photo to inspect the nest, saw a little pink fuzzy thing so I guess they're starting to hatch.

Robin says "Goodnight. Have a good sleep. Stay safe." much more eloquently than I, but I believe this is an accurate translation.

Bonne nuit, fais de beaux rêves
(the bird family is from New Brunswick, therefore bilingual)

www.allaboutbirds.orgAmerican Robin Overview, All About Birds, Cornell Lab of OrnithologyThe quintessential early bird, American Robins are common sights on lawns across North America, where you often see them tugging earthworms out of the ground. Robins are popular birds for their warm orange breast, cheery song, and early appearance at the end of winter. Though they’re familiar town and city birds, American Robins are at home in wilder areas, too, including mountain forests and Alaskan wilderness.

Y’all? Please recognize the beautiful moments in your life. Now more than ever it’s important to take care of ourselves, practice gratitude, breathe.

Last night I started watering & a bunch of huge #dragonflies came & played in the mist. While the sky was turning colors. And I saw an #AmericanRobin #Flicker #hummingbird #butterflies and people walking the cutest dogs.
It was a mindblowing moment 🙂

Glad I left my phone inside. Allowed me to experience the moment.

First Visitors

The first avian visitors to my birdbath have been a Northern Flicker and a couple of American Robins, although they seemed to be more interested in the adjacent plants than the fountain. One robin actually perched on the rim of the birdbath in order to drink from the drip tray of the nearest plant pot. I suspect they were attracted by the fountain but the hot weather made the still water an easier source of refreshment.

Swede’s Photographs

Steel Gray Feathers and Copper Breast

This American Robin (Turdus migratorius) was foraging in the grass in my front yard early one spring, one of five or six searching for insects among the blades. Like Eastern Bluebirds, robins belong to the thrush family, though their behavior feels a bit more communal. While bluebirds are common visitors, robins often seem shyer—though at certain times of the year, they move together in flocks. I’ve heard that bluebirds flock as well, but I’ve yet to see it for myself.

The photographs I share here don’t appear as vivid as they do in my Pixel’s gallery. To make them load more easily, I reduce their size and slightly lower their quality. Take a look:
