I guess that's one reason they nest so early--if things go wrong they'll try again. <br />Here's something you may want to try with the nest, if you still have it. <br />I read that you can put the nest in a fire and the clay will bake into a little pot. (The twigs etc will burn off.) I've not tried it because I know that robins reuse their nests through the season. Let me know if you do try!Laura A.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31186364.post-58005221859677451562011-05-30T10:57:26.933-05:002011-05-30T10:57:26.933-05:00oh no (my comment to the previous day's post s...oh no (my comment to the previous day's post sounds stupid now) ... so sad for the robin's babies :( Most of the time Nature knows best, even though it hurts. Sometimes it is unfair too, unfortunately.<br />You are working so hard my friend. For your family, for your home, for everyone. Your garden's got to be the most wonderful spot !!<br />Sending you big hugs xoxoSonia / COZY MEMORIEShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18442300389429354564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31186364.post-32896999223887935922011-05-30T07:35:16.538-05:002011-05-30T07:35:16.538-05:00I understand your sadness. For the last two years...I understand your sadness. For the last two years we have watched first robins and then sparrows nest in our yard, only to have the baby birds snatched from their nests by predators. As you say, that is life. The good news is that the new baby sparrows this year are doing well. 100 irises! Those are going to be beautiful next spring.Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00833200712432797583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31186364.post-5572393701258784892011-05-30T06:18:21.035-05:002011-05-30T06:18:21.035-05:00did you save the gorgeous nest?

We have a red bellied woodpecker nesting in a tree hole and I love hearing the peeps out of the babies as they wait for that next worm from mom and dad. So special.
