Robin update: It’s getting crowded. The puppies are ready to fly! For those who haven’t seen my previous posts, there is a robin nest atop a speaker on the tall backside of Deb’s and my house, and I have been periodically hanging out our kitchen window to photograph the chicks. This is the second brood […]
Robin update: The puppies are doing great! I shot this photo a few minutes ago, and it’s amazing how much they’ve grown in just three days. If you’ve missed the progress on the three robin chicks, starting at the eggs, see my earlier posts.
Robin update: We have puppies! I was a day off on my prediction of Wednesday, but two of the three robin chicks hatched this morning. That one egg hasn’t hatched yet is to be expected. Momma robin laid the final egg a day later than the others. More updates to come.
Robin update: Yesterday, I posted that the robins nesting atop the speaker on the tall back side of Deb’s and my house had laid a second clutch of eggs. Earlier this summer, they raised three chicks, but the second clutch had only two eggs. Then, this morning, mom said, “What the fuck,” and laid a […]
Marty’s photo of the day #4770: I spotted the robins, who had raised three chicks earlier this summer, makin’ whoopee. Then, yesterday, two eggs showed up in their nest atop the speaker on the tall back wall of Deb’s and my house. I will follow up in the coming weeks with progress pictures of this […]

Marty’s photo of the day #2213: Catwoman: “Let no one say that Catwoman is not the best-dressed woman in the world.” Batman: “There are no fashion shows where you’re going, Catwoman.” Robin: “And how could a feline feloness like you also be a fashion model?” Batman: “Ah-ah.
