    A busy Robin was helping with the weeding every few minutes. This was just a few feet from the tree it was building her nest in.

    The blackbirds here like to gather moss from the stones around the pond to line their nests. I haven't the heart to clear it away as I like the thought of the nestlings have a nice, warm place to be raised in.
