This was from last spring. The robins have since grown up and have their own families now in "the big evergreen bush", while the peach tree is looking like a bumper crop this year!

    Not in the peach tree, luckily, but there are a million birds & nests in the bushes around my house. I live in the home town of John James Audubon.

    Robin are outstandingly successful gatherers, no wonder there are so many of them. My wife and I can see a nest from our living room window, and the parents make trips every 5min or so out to the yard and come back with giant mouthfuls of worms. I have no idea how they find the so quickly in the dry grass, but the babies get fat quick and are out on their own in no time.
