Peek
























 Had a little peek into the robin's nest this morning, and to my delight there are 4 babies. If I jiggled the tree a little the beaks all opened at the same time waiting for worms and grubs from mama bird. Unfortunately I couldn't jiggle the tree, operate my camera lens and balance on the edge of the chair at the same time, but I did manage to get a shot of the little foursome while mama shrieked at me from a distance while Hannah cat and Foster dog looked on with a vague curiosity.

Speaking of mama's, thank you all for your kind wishes regarding my Sweet Mamma who is to have surgery today anytime from 4 pm to midnight. She is considered to be quite high risk, so we are on pins and needles today waiting for it to all be over and her safely though the danger period. 
Thank you for your continued positive thoughts and support.

  13. I'll keep your family in my thoughts. I've been digging up flower beds, and as I toss the sod aside, the robins hop in to get at the worms.

  14. Chania, I hope your mom does well with her surgery. She is as delicate as those beautiful baby birds. They are resilient and I pray she will be too. Ann

  15. Chania I have just found your blog and LOVE your photos. Chania also happens to one of my favourite places in the world - in Western Crete, Greece. My story Venetian House of Lion is one of my favourites - about a gorgeous Venetian Hotel on the waterfront - I do hope you will go if you haven't already been! Have a lovely weekend. Francesca
