Happy Mother's Day

Mrs. Robin feeding her babes ...

I was out doing yard work this afternoon and noticed momma flying back and forth between my garden that I just tilled and the Eucalyptus tree pictured here. It took me a little while to realize that she was gathering food for her babies. Thankfully the sun was just at the right angle to light up the nest so that I could get this photo. Unfortunately, there was a bit of a breeze and the Eucalyptus branches were swinging back and forth preventing me from getting a clear picture of the whole family.
