Title: Robin nest cam
Post by: NOCK NOCK on May 26, 2015, 09:35:23 PM: We have a robin nest in a blue spruce in our yard, so I am going to try and set up a trail cam on it to see if I can get some pictures/videos of the eggs hatching/birds growing. Am also going to set up the Nikon on a tripod to get some pics via remote.
Here are a couple to start with....if it works, I will post more as they age.

The Robins around here have resorted to nesting under some over-head cover (hanging basket planters, downspouts under the eaves etc.), or the Crows spot the nest and it's all over. Crows are extremely smart birds and I've seen groups patrolling, finding, and gorging on eggs and little birds. I saw a Crow dive head-first into my neighbors Blue Spruce sparrow nest & rip & tear it to shreds, flying off with a little bird after eating all but one. Nature is sometimes not real pretty
