Observed life cycle of robins this spring from egg to fledgling (pics)(wholesome)
Took around 1 month from egg to first flight. Got to witness their entire life cycle on a daily basis. Thought I'd share. The mom tossed the entire nest down and I kept it as a memento. Didn't want to get too close to take pics so I wouldn't disturb them so I did my best.


*Look at reflection in car window and flex every time crew*
*Use half the roll to wipe after a poo crew*
*Fart in the gym and blame rotten smell on faulty ventilation crew*
*Fart at home and blame it on the dog crew*
*Watch neutron-star density poop mock me as water flushes around it and it stays put crew*
*Drive 2 minutes in the summer and back of shirt gets completely wet crew*
*Coffee black as midnight on a moonless night crew*
*Fat shame my cat on a daily basis crew*

I love chicken nuggets.
Especially when they are that young, you don't even have to worry about the bone, you crush it all up into a pink paste and use little dinosaur cookie cutters.
what a great snack.
w/ ketchup.
"wholesome"
lol, little beady eyed flea infested ugly ass ball sacks.

Man, I used to have a pretty nice mocking bird nest in my RV. They used the chit out of that thing. Mom would always follow me on the lawn mower, around the whole yard too. A friend is using my RV. A few weeks ago I removed the nest. They built a new one, but he took the RV yesterday so it gone for good now. I wonder where she will post up now.

How many of them made it? I live near a river and watch cygnets grow up into swans every year which is quite nice, but not this close.
Old bird nests can have some nasty stuff for humans, be careful.

I have robins nesting my Japanese maple. They are not that far off the ground. Been avoiding pruning because I dont want to disturb them.

We also have these snakes that return to lay their eggs here every spring. They're always out on my front steps sunbathing together like a little family.
Thanks for the tips on the nest. I was careful and placed it inside my shed on a shelf using gardening gloves.
