I'm happy to report that Mrs. Robin appears to be back on the straight and narrow. I think our chat on Sunday must have gotten through to her. Lately, Mrs. Robin has been staying in the nest and tending to her clutch, with only a few brief absences. After her shenanigans on Saturday night, I don't think anyone is going to nominate Mrs. Robin for Mother of the Year. However, we are hopeful that she will be able to keep her act together long enough to hatch the eggs, teach the little ones how to fly and hunt for worms, and send them out into the real world.
In other news, Bill and I are trying to decide what to name the baby robins when they hatch. We have books of baby names spread out all over our living room right now, and I have to admit, it's a bit overwhelming. So, we would like to ask you, our loyal blog readers, to help us choose the names. To help get your creative juices flowing, here are a few of our favorites so far:
- Christopher Robin
- Batman N. Robin
- Baskin Robin
So, don't be shy! Please use the form below to submit your nominations for baby names. Unfortunately, the negotiations with our site sponsor fell through at the last minute, so we won't be able to offer the $1 million cash prize that we had originally planned on. However, if we choose your name, you'll get the satisfaction of knowing that you got to name one of our world-famous baby robins.
P.S. Thanks to everyone who submitted an entry in the "Guess the Hatch Date" contest. We will announce the winner shortly after the robins hatch.
