Sweet Robin Red Breast
Look who showed up in our front yard today. Isn't he precious? I was pruning some bushes and heard something peeping. At first glance I thought it was a Mama bird, but this little guy didn't fly away as I got closer. He was crying for help, I believe, and I wanted so badly to help him! We are currently studying birds and it states that if you find a bird you should leave it alone. This is for the best. As a child, I found a little bird and sadly it had a heart attack when people got involved.:( So, I took a quick picture and spoke quietly to the little fellow. He just looked at me and blinked. Bless his little heart. Well, the girls and I watched him from the front door for a minute, but then we were off and running to gymnastics. We didn't get home until hours later and he had vanished. I hope he is snug in his little nest tonight.:-)
Parker and I were listening to bird sounds this morning http://www.naturesound.com/birds/birds.html the first option is a robin.
ReplyDeleteI love robins, not only is my brother named Robin after Christopher Robin, but they are such happy birds and bring back memories of my childhood.
I love your little Robin! So sweet. Yes, I found my birdcages, btw. Yeah me! I'll try and get a picture of my birdcages up soon.
