Fledge Robin Fledge! #WordlessWednesday

Last week, we heard something moving around the outside of our living room air conditioner.

I went outside to investigate and it was a fledgling American robin, fresh out of the nest. (A note to my European readers, this is a totally different species than your European robin).

I tried taking a picture without getting too close.  Look right in the middle of the picture.

But how had it gotten up on a window air conditioner? 

I looked up and saw my answer (middle left).

I had never seen the nest, high up below our eaves.  I had seen a robin's egg shell on our driveway, perhaps at the beginning of the month.  This fledgling may have been the end result.

  9. Hopefully it'll remain safe up there until it can fly out on its own.

  10. European Robins smoke little cigarettes and eat cheese.
    Oh. Wait. I think those are French Robins.
    My bad.
