Robins Make Me Nervous
A trio of baby Robbins, protected from the elements by my porch.
Trio of Baby Robins
Had to use the zoom, hence the rather crappy picture, but there you have them. Three baby robins, American Robins to be exact. They are a delight, both ma and pa taking an active role in feeding the hungry little critters. They make me nervous in that I worry about them. Will all three survive? What about that feral cat that has claimed more than one bird from the feeder area? I’ve read that squirrels prey on young Robbins (as they have my insulation). Are they hiding, spying, waiting to kidnap them? I’ve seen what squirrels can do to a feeder when they are hungry, perhaps they are satisfied with seeds for the moment.
Ah, nature!

Hi Miss Mary … I have been a fan of yours for some time now. I love your Victorian clip-art and hope it comes back soon! I also wish your baby robins luck. They’re so cute! It’s hard to watch nature shows and not feel bad when little things succumb to predators.
But I hope they do okay, and I love your vintage Victorian stuff.
Hi Meg, thank you for your kind words. I had to take a break from the clip art, but I hope to put at least some of the collection online again soon
