Robins nesting on our patio

Great excitement as I realised this weekend that the pair of robins that have been hanging around for most of the previous week, have taken up residence in the nesting box in a corner on our patio.

So ... I'm feeding them on their favourites, and put out some soft, organic wool in earth colours for their nest and they gracefully accepted the gift!

We're not going anywhere near the nest, too worried that it will put them off, and I'm trying not to worry about the weeks ahead and the local cat population.

Robins have the sweetest song.
