Spring is finally here

It finally feels like Spring in our area, and the peach blossoms are blooming in my backyard. She was pretty far away and busy trying to feed her babies. Photos were taken with Canon 5DMkIII, EF70-200mm f/4L USM lens

Nesting Robin

I thought that was a rather large baby Robin when I saw her 2 days ago, but it was the mother Robin nesting her eggs. Bo said that there are 4 eggs in there, I only saw 2, and 4 is a strange number because I had only seen 3 eggs in the past. This…

Baby Robin

Bo spotted a baby robin mommy Robin today, I'm sure there are 3 in there. The nest is at the same bush as last year, but it has gotten a lot taller this year. While I was taking some pictures, the mother Robin was nearby.

Danger Zone for Robin’s Nest

Updated: August 15, 2009: The last baby Robin left the nest today, I was going to take some picture yesterday but the father and mother Robin were very aggressive and I didn't want them to poke my eyeballs.  I'm glad that this nest worked out for them, and I'm not sure what I am going…

Hummingbird

I had never seen a real life Hummingbird before, only in pictures or videos until I visited Bo’s friend's horse stable.  She has a hummingbird feed of water sugar and I sat there for a while before getting these pictures.  It was late in the evening, so some of the pictures are not as clear…

New Baby Robins Still Growing

I think the baby Robins and the mommy Robin get used to me by now, the mother is busy looking for worms to feed her babies.  The baby Robins have grown some since I last posted their photos, the one in the middle looks like s/he is singing. Updated 4/30/2009: When I left for work…

New Baby Robins

I'm working on translating a ghost story, something that I've put aside for awhile because things have come up, but I've not forgotten, and for those that have been coming to read (or looking for a new) ghost story, I thank you.  I should be finishing with one in the next day or so. It…

Robin’s Nest

About a week ago I spotted a Robin's nest next to my house.  This one is not as high as the one from last year, it's only about 6 feet high. And today, she laid 3 eggs, so we'll have 3 baby Robins in a week or so. Updated 3/27/2009: Sad to say, I think…

Spreading Their Wings

It has been 7 days since I posted the photos of the baby robins, and now they’re ready to test their wings. I’ve noticed in the last days or so that they’re getting bigger and more active, and thought some of them might be ready to fly. I came home for lunch today, but instead…

Baby Robins

I’m glad that I decided to keep the robin’s nest, today I saw 3 baby robins sticking its heads out, mouths wide open waiting for food, the mother near by with worm in her mouth. The robin only nest twice a year, I would say this nest is safe from the crows because it’s facing…
