    Robins nest at work

    One of our little Robins has hatched her chick's in amongst the flowers for sale at work, she's back words and forwards in between customers with caterpillars for them
    Our British Robins are very different to yours in the states
    Hopefully the magpies won't have them this year, she has laid them alot safer this year, so fingers crossed

    Aww, they are so cute, what a place to make a nest, I thought robins made nests high up in the trees. They are probably safer there among the humans who can watch over them and feed them anyway. Thanks for sharing.

    I had no idea some robins had white eggs, the robins I have here in Canada have blue eggs.

    That’s awesome. Wishing for safe hatchlings.

    You are right, y’all’s robins are different than ours. I like ‘em.
    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

    Same down here in the states...everyone knows what is meant by "robin's egg blue" color. Your Brit robins must be imposters...

    That was so sad last year, when the magpie got your robins...better luck to this one & her cute family. Can't believe a bird would put a nest on a trolley like that...
    you have some very trusting birds over there!

    They're getting there, they still have a bit more time in the nest though as their wings aren't capable of flight just yet. They are so very cute.
