The postman nets the box, so that people do not use it but the robins can still get in. Everyone understands and leave the little birds in peace to raise their brood.<br /><br />Wood anemone are very good this year. They are out in the local woods and along the lanes. I do love them.<br /><br />Glad you had a lovely walk.....it is good to walk and talk with friends.Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14802468583972118464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5266224907043302947.post-51631047756367337842010-04-14T17:56:04.993+01:002010-04-14T17:56:04.993+01:00We had some not so sensible birds nesting in our g...We had some not so sensible birds nesting in our garden until the weekend. They decided to nest in an ivy that is covering one wall, but is in very easy reach of our 4 cats. Needless to say we found a dead chick on our lawn. And then our girl cat added insult to injury as she jumped from the patio straight into the ivy and proceeded to sit in the vacant bird nest.<br /><br />SusanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5266224907043302947.post-48228298607432148072010-04-14T15:33:21.828+01:002010-04-14T15:33:21.828+01:00Silly me!

I've noticed a lot of mating type activity in the last week or so but I'm amazed some little pair have already got on with the job - so to speak... I would have picked robins too but they like an open front and the gap is not that big in a post box is it? Could you go back in a few weeks after fledging and give us an update please? I need to know these things! Love the wood anemones too. Simple things are the best aren't they?
