Turdus migratorius
A Robin's nest with three beautiful greenish-blue eggs. Rarely spotted. Nests are well-made cups of mud reinforced with grass and twigs, lined with softer grasses and placed in a tree or ledge or windowsill; they usually have two broods a season. It is very deep and well supported in the crux of a tree.
Towns, gardens, open woodland and agricultural land.

Photo No. 1: is a beautiful photo....a beautiful nest....beautiful eggs....
I shall try to watch the babies hatch and post them if I do.
Great! I am glad for it.
I think you just helped me identify the greenish blue I that I found on the ground under an oak tree this morning.
Beautiful...will you be able to keep a watch on the chicks when they hatch? At least one person on another continent (me!) is hoping to catch a glimpse of three new baby robins.
Done.
Please consider adding this spotting to the Animal Architecture mission at http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/8082...

I couldn't believe seeing it. So low to the ground. I will have to walk a new path so I don't disturb her and her young ones. Thanks.
What beautiful blue eggs
