We are joining Rosy this week for Nature Friday~~
Obviously, no walking happened this week but mom discovered that another African Violet was in bloom~
We had a beautiful sunrise on Wednesday morning~
The Periwinkle is flowering!
Before Mrs Robin started to incubate her eggs, mom stole a picture while she was off her nest. There are now three eggs. Mom saw crows and a squirrel hanging around the base of the rhododendron yesterday afternoon. Sadly, these eggs don't stand a chance.
We did have a bad thing that happened. I killed my inflatable cone! Mom has no idea how it happened. She took it all apart searching for a hole or rip which she never found.
It wasn't me, mom!
Happy Friday, everyone!
Love ya lots♥
Knot me, never, no, not! Time out? OMD, look at those eyes ... you just know he did it ...
ReplyDeleteThe Rhododendrons at TADN always had some robins nesting each year - there was about a 50% success rate -
ReplyDeleteNope - not Sir Duke!
Nice SUNrise shot!

ReplyDeleteThose eggs are beautifurs... Let's all put a bit of POTP their way!
What's that? Catastrophic valve dysfunction? No accounting for faulty parts, eh Duke.....😉 Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xx
Yeap, it wasn't Duke, Mom. No holes, or rip, right?👻
ReplyDeleteI love your flowers and that gorgeous sunrise. Thank you for the precious pictures of Robin's eggs, I bet Mom was watching Mrs Robin.😆 It's hard to understand why Robin's eggs are blue, but if you put Mrs Robin and the eggs together, their colors work out amazing.🧡💙
I’m envious of you having the Robins this close.

You found some pretty purple flowers this week, Duke. We have our paws crossed that the robins eggs make it.
ReplyDeleteyet another mystery... the deflating cone
ReplyDeleteyour violet looks like a painting!!! had to look twice
LeeAnna
The violet is beautiful I do love their fuzzy leaves too
ReplyDeleteThe sunrise is magnificent...the violet hues are so pretty
OH NO did a squirrel deflate you collar.
I sure do wish the robins new that when looking for real estate to chose better locations.
Happy Easter to you, Mom and Missy and her furries

We bet that squirrel hanfing out by the Nest snuck in and killed that cone..squirrels are sneaky like that!
ReplyDeleteSuch a wonderful sunrise, and we love seeing your Mom's Violet blooming!
xoxo,
Rosy & Sunny
Robins are just starting to nest here, no eggs yet. Happy Easter!
ReplyDeleteThose were terrific photos Dandy Duke and I hope you get that cone off soon.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures! I hope the robin eggs survive against the odds. You certainly have a way with violets.
ReplyDeleteChaplin: "Killing the inflatable cone? That sounds like something Dennis would have done ..."
