Breeding begins March, continuing through July and August. Location: Robins favour secluded areas near the ground, including log piles, banks, hedges, and ivy. Unusual Sites: They frequently nest in forgotten items like kettles, teapots, old boots, or hanging baskets. Nest Structure: Built by the female using moss, hair, grass, and dead leaves. Broods: Usually have 2-3 broods, with 4β6 eggs per clutch. Incubation/Feeding: Female incubates for 13β15 days while the male feeds her. Both parents feed the young, which fledge in about 14 days. The Woodland Trust.

It's always that time of year for nesting pigeons.
Preparation is the key to success. πͺΆπ±

Beefly resting in the glorious sunshine next to the pond.
And off he flies after a quick sunbathing escapade. Very difficult to get a close up.
Bee fly, best I could get before he flew off. π± ππͺ°

There was quite a bit of wrestling prior to this coupling. The second male followed these two into the pond. Hoping his luck would change.

A very friendly Robin following me around the garden. Here he is at the edge of the pond. I rewarded him with some meal worms.
I've got a new friend. Following me around the garden this morning. ππ±

First male toad of the year to emerge, making his way to the our small pond. The nights will soon be filled with chirping squeaking and croaking. The pond will be full of hopeful males soon. πΈπ
The first toad to appear since last year. I've heard one chirping recently but not seen it. Felt last night was perfect for them, warmer and raining. πΈπ±β€οΈ

Large female toad with a smaller male on her back. I love their golden eyes and warty skin. In 25 years I've only ever had one frog, it's always toads. I would love both species here. Great for garden health.
I swear I heard a toad chirping a couple of days ago. Perfect weather for them, lots of rain. This image taken in my garden a couple of years ago.
