We noticed that the mother bird was acting extremely defensive today. So we took a look in the nest and Yes indeed, we have babies! 3 or 4. I couldn't look very long as the mother robin began to dive bomb me repeatedly. She was screeching and flying as close to me as possible without actually hitting me. We left them alone. However, when I came out later in the afternoon to enjoy a few minutes sitting on the front porch, mother robin was not going to let that happen. As soon as I sat down, she flew to the railing and chirped at me...
in bird language, I'm sure it was pretty colorful stuff. Hey, we were here first. I will give them space, but I will sit on the porch...tomorrow...
