A Really Close Call!

Yesterday, DH and I decided it that we needed to get outside and do some yard work. His garganutan task was to trim the bushes in front of the windows. So he's going at it with the electric saw thingys when he spots this:


OOPS! Thank goodness he didn't get it with the trimmers! He continued to trim around them, and then once we were done, covered them up a bit with some debris to hopefully keep them hidden from predators.

    I think they are robin's eggs. I don't know, I need to look them up.

    I'm not certain they're robins. Robins tend to be sold blue, that blue. But the speckling is throwing me off. Hmmm..

    Very beautiful and I'm glad Doug was able to spare them.

    Awesome! There is just something so precious about a nest full of eggs. Hopefully there will be a post in the near future that shows what emerges from these eggs! :-)

    Well I looked it up and they resemble the eggs of the Carolina Wren. But the bad news is we are down to one egg :( I don't know what has happened to the others.....
