amazing animal stories thread (post your own)
« Reply #1000 on: May 21, 2013, 10:41:05 PM »
Was mowing my lawn the other day and looked up to see a perfectly constructed bird's nest in my attic window.  There was a female robin in it. So, after I got done mowing I took mini nicname up to the attic to get a closer look from inside.  As we approached to window the robin flew off to a nearby tree limb and revealed four baby-blue robin eggs!  I'm not sure if mom robin was scared or just wanted to show off her eggs, but I'll settle on the latter.  It was a nice gesture and I would be kind of disappointed in her for bailing on her kids so quickly.  I mean, we were inside for goodness' sake, and we weren't being threatening at all. 

I headed up there yesterday to get something out of the attic and also to see what me friend the robin and her family were up to.  Long story short, there were only three eggs this time and one baby robin chick!  I'm excited to head up there tonight and see what is happening at the robin residence!

My dad has been photographing this family of foxes by his work.  There are two adults and 4 pups.  Anyway he heard that this conservation group was looking for a family to adopt this other orphaned baby fox so my dad called them and they brought the pup over and added it to the family.  I guess foxes will just take all comers or something.  Anyway he got some coll pictures of a fox with a fat grey squirrel.

Every time I grill a fox comes by my backyard.  We nicknamed him Guy and I usually try to throw a little something on for him too.  Totally adorable.

Found a lil garter snake in my backyard the other day when I was planting some flowers. Kept him in a pot for a while then let him go  :D
