Robin's Nest

We have only one large tree near our house, and Lydia spotted a robin's nest in it yesterday!  When she saw it the first time, she climbed (carefully) up and found one blue egg. Today there were 2 blue eggs, so obviously Mama Robin is still laying eggs.

The good news is that the nest seems sturdy and is built carefully at the fork of 3 branches.

The bad news is that we have 6 outdoor cats and some of them climb that tree on occasion.  Usually it is only when they are running from a dog, so we'll hope for the best that they don't go up the tree in the next month. 

In the meantime, it is exciting to have a nest in our tree and we'll pray all goes well with the babies.
