Momma Robin in Nest

[CaraRose]

Got surprised by this girl chirping loudly at me when I was walking to Starbucks this morning. She's in a small tree with the next about eye level.

I came back with my camera and got some shots. I must have unnerved her since she popped from the nest and started bobbing around the tree chirping (I think a warning chirp... I've heard robins do this when they see my neighbor's cat hunting). Took a few quick ones of her since she was puffed up a bit then moved away so she could relax and get back to work.

Eye level?! May be next time she would find some place higher

Yep... the tree itself is small, maybe 6-7 feet high. She's in the lower branches, just high enough that I can't quite look into the nest without a stool. It's a densely branched tree, but I don't know why she didn't for for one of the perfectly good, large maples right next door!

I'll check back on her and see if there are any babies anytime soon
