Four Blue Eggs!



On Wednesday we checked our nest and there were four small blue American Robin eggs in the nest. We did our research and found out that robins usually lay their eggs mid-morning. We checked the nest at 8:45 (3 eggs)...11:05 (she wouldn't get off the nest!) and 3:00 (4 eggs!).They usually only lay about 4 eggs...so we checked the next day and no more eggs. So we think she is ready to start sitting. Unfortunately we keep the playground pretty busy so she comes and goes to her nest. We are not sure she picked the best spot for her nest? :-) We will mark our calendar and watch to see when (and if? :-( ) they hatch. We will keep you updated!
