The mockingbirds have been keeping DH awake during the night lately too - such a noisy bunch, and they totally scold me when I'm working in the shade gardens under "their" trees. (I love talking back to them and they get highly indignant)

We have had two robins nests in the yard that were abandoned this year - weird! One was in the holly tree at a very low height - like 2 feet. I went out to check it one day and the robin and her three eggs were gone (I suspect snakes or coons or cats on that one) Another one in the pyracantha higher up was abandoned with two eggs in it - don't know if they didn't like the lawn mowing and trimming that was starting to happen , or what! I felt sad about that one too - I didn't know about it until it was too late.
