| Crazy robin looking for her eggs... |
I have an odd story for you...We spent a long weekend visiting with our daughter and her family. From the time we got there until the time I left (I stayed on a couple of extra days...) there was a constant knocking on the downstairs kitchen windows. We heard it from the rising of the sun, through the days and through the evenings. Peeking out of the shutters to see what was making the noise, we saw a robin...(the one above...) the SAME robin each time. It was as though she was speaking to us, trying desperately to get our attention...tell us something! Once she had it and we were looking at her, eye-to-eye, she'd cock her head, hold our gazes for a while, then jump down to the ground...only to fly up to the window sill again and do the same thing. We had a family discussion about her and why she could be doing this (making an awful mess of the windows, I might add...) and the only explanation that made sense was that she'd lost her eggs and thought perhaps we had them inside OUR big nest! What say YOU? Any bird lovers out there with any other thoughts? It's really puzzling...still!!!
Responding to a few blog art challenges this week...for CREAVIL CHALLENGE BLOG (creepy crawlers) and INSPIRATION AVENUE (blossom,) I combined both into the art below...
