that's why I'm being dive bombed!

Ever since we got back from the cottage, it seems there has been a robin near the front door. Going in or out, she was dive bombing us, seemingly annoyed.
Well sure, if someone kept coming that close to my nursery, I'd be pretty pissed as well...

Had we been home on the weekend and noticed the build, we gently would have dissuaded her, and moved the stuff (if possible) to a better place. She's going to be pissed at us, and I'm not going to be too happy with her squawking everytime I go in or out. This is our main entrance, so there's no option for us to use another door - the sliders to the deck aren't lockable from the outside.

Oh well. as long as we're careful, things should work out. If I can get a picutre of the inside without stressing the Mom Robin, I will, but her safety and peace of mind has to come first.

Those babies explode in growth and get huge so fast, they'll be gone in no time!

Yikes! Being dive bombed by a Robin could be scary...they're not small. Might make it a little scary to come home. lol

we had a robin's nest by our front door. i didn't notice it was there until one day i got seriously dive-bombed.
had to be very careful and swift when leaving the house, then, one day, the robins were gone.
who knows why.
nest empty. odd !
