These pics were taken yesterday at moms house A robin has built this nest on the porch light. Silly bird! Wonder if theyre going to stay there, I mean, people -do- use this door...will the birds be scared off?

Maybe the robin feels safer near to humans as preditors are less likely to bother it there. Let's hope it manages to raise it's young without any mishaps. Your flowers are just lovely Jen. Isn't spring a wonderful time of year?
Nice flowers Jen, as for the Robin, a practice nest, an inexperienced pair or a pair that has gotten use to humans. Proof will be eggs, then incubating them with people traffic will be a problem. It will be interesting to hear of any results. I have problems with Carolina Wrens with nests in hanging baskets. I have to be careful watering the plant in the basket. Jerry
Your blooms are very pretty Bip! We had a Robin's nest on top of a light on our front porch every year when I was still at home. They got used to us going in and out but didn't like us hanging around. We didn't mind except for all the poop...
Lovely flowers Bip! I found signs of a "someone" trying to build a nest on one of my shelves. My Mom used to put plastic flowers in her flower pots on the front porch. Said that would keep the birds from trying to build a nest in them. And it works! I love the view from your mom's house... looks so peaceful and safe... just like the good ol' days.
Lovely collection of flowers Bip,..and the shot near your Mom's house!,..keep us informed about the nest.
