We have a new guest on our porch: Mama Bird. She began working on a nest last Wednesday and we had an egg by Friday. I'm worried that she's not the best mother. It seems like she's only on her nest abuot 30% of the time. From what I've read, robins lay 3-4 eggs, but she only has one. Every around the house (Marble included) is all atwitter. Ed and Wrigley check to see if she is in her nest about a dozen times a day. We're expecting a baby bird in about 10 days.

According to Wrigley, "What a pretty nest!" When I wondered aloud, "How do they do that?" Wrigley responded, "I bet they start with the floor."
