Curious Robin

We know it’s springtime when the Robins all show up and start noisily rustling around the house each year. But this year, we have had this one pesky, ultra curious Robin show up. S/he’s very interested to get behind our bay window for some reason. And with a couple of bare Aspen trees to perch and rest from right in front of the bay window, s/he made for an easy subject the other day.

Backyard Robin

I got tired of looking at the computer this weekend and ventured out back on Saturday to see how our Peonies, Roses and vegetable garden were fairing with all this afternoon rain we’ve been getting. The Peonies have lots of buds, but only one bloom as of today, the Roses are budding up like mad, and the garden seems to be enjoying the moisture as well. While out looking for things to shoot, this curious Robin was out following me around the backyard. I don’t know if s/he was trying to keep me from their nest (I haven’t located the yearly Robin’s nest yet) or just out hunting for worms in the grass. But he sure was curious what I was doing with this black camera in my hands…
