The Robin's nests have returned. New location this year, and not ideal - on top of the deck rail right beside the BBQ, so we will have to wait until they are done to do much cooking out there:



3 eggs inside, so we'll hope to have 3 birds at the end...

I've only heard the term "King of the fence" used for the shrike, at least in North America--- because of its proclivity to impale small animsls on Barbed wire!
