Marian was trying a new experiment with meal worms!
This woman is at her happiest when she can feed someone, or something as is the case here.
I put up a smallish pillar and placed a plastic tray on the top weighted down with a heavy stone. My idea about a temporary bird feeder while I am making a proper one.
But we suspected something and here I will show you the result!
This is a thick and dense bush and our study window is at the left of the bush.
Can you see something through the window?
Look carefully at the bottom in the window!
Ha! Marian and Troy have taken up positions inside. Marian to watch the feeding tray and Troy to look at me Lol
Ah! There she was and Mrs. Robin thought it was Christmas!
Trying to get as many meal worms as possible!
Mr. Robin was more responsible and he only took one for himself!
But where was Mrs. Robin going with her feast?
Well she landed on the roof above the bush next to our study!
As she disappeared into the dense bush I took a peek. Wow! There he was! Our first Spring baby is a little Robin!
Check out the intelligence of the Robins here. They know that there are many cats about, but no cat can get into this dense bush. So they built their nest in here!
You can see Mrs. Robin faintly in the middle of the bush feeding the baby.
I didn't want to touch the bush in case I would scare them away!
Imagine that, an ordinary looking bush with such a lovely surprise living inside it.
We had an expensive lesson to buy the meal worms as some people are real crooks. R1 here is about $0.14 cents and this is what a guy charged us for one meal worm. So we bought 25 meal worms for R25
Then a friend told us of another supplier and we paid R25 for a bucket that contains more than 500 meal worms.
Once I get our garden going here, I will soon have our own worms to keep the Robin family happy.
I call this lesson school fees Lol.
