Garden Guests: Robins

 The north side of our front yard is a certified  National Wildlife Federation Backyard Habitat.  Really!  We have a certificate!  It is so much fun to see all of the critters that stop by for a visit.  I'm beginning a new series of posts to show you our Garden Guests.

Baby Robins always make us smile.

And so do their mommas!  God's creations are absolutely amazing!

I love this song by Jaci Velazquez.  You're My God.

The beginning lyrics are:  'A new day was beginning.  All the birds were singing.  The sun was shining up in the sky.  Sometimes the world around me is so awesome it astounds me.  It leaves me feeling mystified.'

Yeah.  That's how I feel today!


Enough about me!  What makes you smile?  Is there a song that describes how you are feeling today?  Well, grab it and link it over at Holli's Hoots and Hollers for Tunes on Tuesday!
Yep!  I'll see ya there!

  1. We get a lot of Robins in our yard. But, I heard a different singer this morning that I can't identify.

  8. That is awesome. I have been thinking about creating a habitat area in our yard with the kids and getting it certified by the National Wildlife Federation Backyard Habitat. I think it would be a fun project to do with the kids.

  9. I love baby robins. The mothers knock them out of the nest before they can even fly! Then she continues to feed them as they hop around the yard. Thanks for sharing. Please continue to share nature at your little part of the world. Linda
