\"nesting<\/a><\/p>\n

I watched this robin gather grass for nesting material in our small sideyard a few years ago. It was a windy day and the robin kept dropping what it already had in its beak as it tried for more. (Called to mind Aesop<\/a>.) After numerous attempts, the robin gathered up a good bundle. It took off from the grass and paused just long enough in a gap in the fence. Click. Thank you. With all the wind, I didn\u2019t expect this photo to be in focus.<\/p>\n

Robins love to bathe, perhaps moreso than any other birds I\u2019ve seen in our yard.<\/p>\n
