Hi Anneli! I see you up there on the deck. Thanks for scaring that crow away. I’ve lived to see another day and it looks like it will be a good one too.
I’ve learned to hide better.
I’m thinking of eating one of these holly berries. Do you think they taste good?
Oh, I see a good one.
But these prickly leaves are bugging me. They’re poking right into my fluffy feathers.
I think I’ll go for it. They look good, and red is my favourite colour.
Oh, you should have told me they were sour!
I suppose I’ll get used to them. At least I can feed myself these berries. I’m tired of having my mother cram everything down my throat.
And anyway, I’m sitting on a goldmine of berries here.
Yes, life is good.

I like it when they hold still long enough for me to snap a few pics.

Thanks, Cindy. It’s always a bit fuzzier when I zoom but this guy was patient with me and posed for a long time.

Baby robins really are sweet. I hope he makes it to adulthood. They’re so vulnerable just now.

Yes, it’s nice and thick in that bunch of trees. I just hope he can avoid the crows. We saw another victim being flown off with yesterday. It really makes me mad because crows will eat anything. They don’t have to have robins.

Stepping outside in the morning and seeing the Robins in the yard is a wonder. How are they escaping the raucous crows every morning? They start at daybreak, marauding the forest birds.

Such a sweet post! Love the photos and the new hiding place. Let’s hope this one will be safe long enough to ward off the crows and other predators.

You don’t want to know how many we see fly off in crows’ beaks, but I’m hopeful that these few that hang around our house will stay safe.

Thanks, Belinda, but is that because they don’t nest near where you are or is it because their mortality rate is so high?

My mother always told us (kids) that the birds could talk to us if we would only listen. And sure enough, I started to hear (and make up) what they were saying. It’s fun.
