We have a mother robin that has made a nest on our pergola outside. She has laid eggs and is very protective of her babies. Every time we go out on the patio she flys away to the fence where she makes some very ear shreeking chirps! As I was out there I realized she was in alot of distress to try and protect her babies in the nest. As a mother, I know that you will do anything to protect your precious baby. I felt bad and retreated inside. Here are some pictures of her sitting in her nest that I was able to capture at another time.

From what I can tell this is a Mocking Bird. Not a Robin. That is why it was making all that noise. They are very aggressive and protective. Hopefuly it will be gone soon and you can go back outside.
Mama has a nest of birds on her porch too! The little babies are so cute opening their mouths real wide! I must say they are driving Stormie and Brody crazy!
looks very different in my backyard...i went out this morning and saw two dead birds...Annie and Palsie were looking quite guilty! haha!
