Day Twelve...Baby Robins! And a Fun Surprise for Me...:^)

Evening, All!

 

Day 12 of the "Robin-Watch"...and Babies!!

~

Here again is the nest the parent robins built week-before-last in our little willow...

 

(I was worried, it is so low!)

I wish now that I had gotten the step-ladder sooner,

 

so I could have gotten a "regular" photo of the eggs,

 

but this mirrored-image is kind of interesting, too.

Love the egg color!!

 

This photo hasn't been enhanced at all...

 

(I have a piece of shell that was "tossed" from the nest...I want to take it

 

to the paint store and match the color exactly!)

Okay, here we are at Day Twelve already!



Two of the eggs have hatched today!...



(Sibling is behind/beneath this little babe... look at that fuzzy little head! ♥



 ~ And the little "egg tooth" on the tip (on top) of the beak!)



I guess it makes sense that the eggs don't all hatch at once;



they are probably laid a day or so apart ~ I need to look that up!

Hopefully the other two eggs will hatch tomorrow!

Also, I was honored to be asked to be part of a feature about



Fairy and Gnome Homes on a Disney blog; www.Spoonful.com ~

This is the Fairy Houses and Gnome Homes photo from that segment, by Marigold
Haske.



Here's the link to take you directly there...there are all sorts of interesting



things to see!  http://spoonful.com/crafts/fairy-houses-gnome-homes



Thank you so much, Marigold! (Don't you love her name?)



That's all for this evening!



Stay tuned, more baby-photos tomorrow!



Love,
