Three Whole Eggs One Scrambled


A new tree was planted in the backyard just a few weeks ago. Excitingly, the tree now has a new resident. A few days back we noticed a nest with a metallic blue egg. A few hours later we noticed another one. Today there were four eggs (supposedly robins lay an egg a day), but as I was sitting outside I heard the robin go crazy, squawking, and making a fuss. I looked up and low and behold a crow had invaded her nest. I know that the crow was just following the cycle of life, but I have become quite attached to this mother robin so I shewed the crow off. Unfortunately, the crow got an egg but three remain. Here is another shot of those beautiful eggs.
