Mother's Day Nest

She, or the robin father, always flies away when I get near the window, so there is no parent on this nest, just the four blue eggs. The window ledge is about four feet from my back when I am sitting at the computer.

I wonder if having the light on in this room late a night will affect the health of the parents and eggs.

So, we are enjoying a closeness to motherhood this spring.

And I had a chipmunk in the kitchen! After I left the back door propped open for a couple of hours, I assumed he had found his wayout. Or had he invited his family to move in? I think Zeke would notice a whole family of chipmunks.
