Yesterday I was trimming a vine on our fence, when I noticed this cute little nest among the leaves.  The boys were playing in the sprinkler, but they took a break to come see what I found. 

It's always exciting to find a bit of nature in our own backyard!  We have a small-sized city lot, so we feel pretty lucky when we can study nature so close to home.

Because the eggs are a pretty blue, we decided it must be a Robin's nest.  We checked out a little info online at Wikipedia about the American Robin to learn about our backyard friend.  Many times I'll go to Wikipedia first, then check out their links at the bottom.

Hawken is excited to go take another peek at the nest this morning...so gotta go!
