The Birds



The baby robins have fledged and left without so much as a goodbye cheep. One day there were two, the next day one, and once we got out of bed yesterday morning the nest was empty. I've seen mom and dad searching the yard for insects still, but I haven't seen the fledglings again. I guess we can now take the nest down and clean off the porch. There are a lot of what look like small cherry pits lying around.


Other yard birds include hummingbirds, towhees, goldfinches, chickadees and house finches.
