Robn Babies

We had a thunderstorm and rain overnight and the clouds are still scudding across the sky, and once in awhile letting the sun shine through.   It is windy but certainly not cold today,  the first day of Summer.

The baby robins have now hatched and we were able to lower some of the side awning so that we can see Mum and Dad come and feed those wide open mouths.   We noticed when the adults were feeding the young they would be moving their throat's  so.... Google to the rescue.  Did you know robins regurgitate food for their young for the first four or five days after they have hatched.  I have tried to get photos, so hope to share some in the coming days.  We watch them while we have our lunch, interesting to see things we did not know.  Always something to learn, no matter how simple it is.

We did not have out steak dinner last night, we became couch potatoes and watched golf, because  it was being played on a course in California, it did not end until after eight o'clock, too late for me to start dinner.  So we ended up having drive through from a fast food restaurant.    I don't cook with fats or oils, no fried foods for us, so both of us are suffering  today.  Not heartburn or indigestion but ...... I think you get the picture.  

So the steak, mushroom and broccoli salad is for dinner tonight.

If you only visit once in awhile, have a great week.

  1. I did know that about the robins somehow. I'm glad you have a front row seat to be able to watch them. Sorry you are suffering today. I don't know that it's the fats and oils because I do use butter, olive oil, and even deep fry on rare occasions, yet we suffer too if we get anywhere near fast food!
