Nesting

Last week when I was going around the house trimming limbs off bushes & cutting flowers left over from last year, I spied a broken robins egg. I was sure that the baby robin had safely flown off by now.

A few more steps I found the nest. I've found lots of nests over the last several years and this one is by far the nicest. All the material is of the same kind & color and the nest is very tightly wound. Usually the nests I find are ready to fall apart. Some robin worked very hard on this one.
