Nesting

Cardinal
Robin

We are very lucky to have two birds nesting right by our school.  


There is a cardinal in the bush next to the playground door.  She does not seem to be bothered by the children playing around her, however, she is camera shy.  


I tried several times to take her picture and she would fly off.  Finally, I was able to get a quick shot of her on her nest.  It will be interesting to see how the parents react to us once the babies are born.  




In the pine tree, right outside our classroom door, a robin has made a nest.  She is on a low branch so we can watch her through the window.  We are anxiously waiting for her eggs to hatch so we can watch the baby birds being fed.

I wonder if it is the same robin who used to nest in the cherry tree outside the music room. She isn't there this year.
