Mother Robin Redbreast.
May 06, 2010
There is a pregnant Robin that has been making a home somewhere on our property…I can’t tell where yet. But I see her, lugging that big belly around, and wonder when those babies will hatch. Every morning, she finds a crooked twig in front of our breakfast window, and sings a little tune and then dashes off to find more twigs and dry grass. Is this her first hatch? Does she get scared? Or does she simply get lost in the present moment of a beautiful sunrise? This time last year I too was lugging around a big belly, and had only a wish of being as spritely and light as Little Robin Redbreast. By the size of her belly, and if my timing is right, I am thinking that she will have a very special Mother’s Day.

Interesting & sweet : )
We have lots of robins here – lots
We have a few robins lurking around, they like to raid the grass in a little flock. There’s also a pair of starlings with a nest outside our kitchen window, and morning doves too
A cute thought, but sadly biologically flawed! I’m afraid your robin will only lay one egg per day as they mature one at a time, so she hasn’t got a whole clutch saved up in there! She’s most likely looking plump due to fluffed up feathers. I hope the nest is somewhere you can keep an eye on and see when the chicks hatch. Even if you don’t see them you’ll probably see mother bird taking food back like she’s taking twigs now.
put out a bright colored piece of yarn for her nest. that willl make it easier for you to spot.
pretty sarah!
