Eggs!

Spring is here and the local birds have been very active. Just like last year, an American Robin has built a nest under our deck.

Note that an American Robin (commonly known as a "Robin" in North America) is not closely related to the European Robin (commonly known as a "Robin" in Europe).

Anyway, we noticed that after building the nest a couple of weeks ago, Mrs. Robin is now spending a lot of under our deck.

We checked the nest today and it now holds 4 blue eggs.

Check back soon for an update.
