Angry birds.
I saw one of these robins 200 ft away from it's nests when I was sitting in the backyard this evening. It landed on a post in the grapevine and was ruffling it's feathers at me to let me know it knew who I was I guess.

Robin's nest in the Gravenstein apple tree update. I saw two robins sitting in the nest this afternoon as I was walking by to turn some water off. I tried to take their picture but they got off the nest and protested. I decided to take a photo to inspect the nest, saw a little pink fuzzy thing so I guess they're starting to hatch.

Robin nest update. There are two more blue eggs.
I saw this nest the other day in an apple tree and it seemed new but had no eggs in it. It looked like a house finch nest. Today when I was propping up the branch the nest was in I saw an American robin sitting in it. It left so I took a photo to see if there were any eggs in it and there were two. It still looks like a house finch nest, no mud!
TIL: a chicken that lays blue eggs.
"The Araucana (Spanish: Gallina Mapuche) is a breed of domestic chicken from Chile. The name derives from the historic Araucanรญa region where it is believed to have originated. It lays blue-shelled eggs, one of very few breeds that do so."
