Every morning a pair of robins are busy gathering things for a nest , this year I think they picked the neighbors tree right behind us..we have a lot of winter kill and dog areas that will have to be replanted...but they are making use of the dead grass..too bad we don't have a lot more of them using it and we wouldn't have to dig it out and replant...


Robin...at lease someone likes dead grass! ( photo / image / picture from Sherry8's Garden )

Great shots Sherry. I had raked up some dead patches in my yard into piles. By the time I got back to them with the wheelbarrow, the Robin's were taking the grass away! I left it there for them to use for their nests.

I've said this before, but the Robins are my favorite bird. They keep me company in the yard and I just love the way they talk to one another (and me?).

I was wondering if there is a way to save other people's photos -- the face-on shot that you posted, I love that one. I'll bet someone knows the answer to that question.

Daisybeans...on my computer you right click on a photo and mine says save to on one of the many options I click that and save it on my computer...You can make a folder for pictures you like if you don't have one.. You could even right click on it and mine gives me the option of e-mailing so you could send it to yourself and then save it later if it is easier..

If this doesn't work go to the computer area on here..Good luck...
