Meet our 4 newest customers! 😀
Over the past couple weeks, every time I walked out the back door, a robin would dive-bomb me. I kept thinking, “What in the world is going on?” Turns out, she had built her nest right in between some equipment out back.
After the eggs hatched, every morning we’d go out to check on the babies, and one would be missing. So we’d look around until we found it on the ground. I’d put gloves on and place the baby right back in the nest.
Last Thursday, she dropped the baby in the gravel driveway behind the shop—the same area where we move cars in and out. Luckily, we found it, or it would’ve been smashed. Once again, on went the gloves, and back in the nest the baby went.
And guess what????? After the 3rd save, she hasn’t kicked any more babies out since. I guess she finally got tired of us putting it back and decided to just deal with it. 😀
This morning I crept out there like a thief in the night , being very quiet, trying to peek thru the door crack and dern she heard me and flew out like a rocket. But I got my picture!
I later learned that the momma bird may remove a weaker baby as a natural survival instinct. But not at Perryman’s… we stepped in as “Mother Nature.”
As of today, all four little ones are safe and accounted for.
What a tweet story. 😀
