Robin's Nest

The robin has built her nest in an old boot, lying on its side down on the grass with a clutch of wide-open beaks sticking out of it. She is standing alongside working out quite what she has taken on.

The rest of the garden has come to have a look: a blackbird on the blue pot, sparrows in the ivy, mice in and out of a fallen flowerpot and a snail crossing the grass in no hurry. Foxgloves and primulas everywhere, and a peacock butterfly by the log!
