Some silly Mama Robin decided our back deck light would be the perfect spot for a nest. This has been attempted in the past, and discouraged, but we were busy with other things this year and weren't paying attention. Between the time we really noticed and the time she was sitting on eggs was a pretty small turnaround, so we gave up. It does seem like a nice spot, facing east, out of the wind and the majority of our Weather. Can't blame a girl for trying. We noticed one egg had crashed to the deck but for about a week or so now we've had new friends, Bert and Ernie. Perhaps it's Roberta and Ernestine, but either way, they've perfected the Duck and Cover maneuver anytime we open the door to take the dogs out!
