They just wandered down here and put up this fence for themselves.  Okay &#8211; they are actually Larry&#8217;s nephews, because they belong to his brother.  We put them on our field for a week to let them get it chewed down some.  The best thing about this picture is they what they are all looking at so intently is the chickens coming out into their yard.

You have heard my <a href=\"http:\/\/dlynz.com\/?p=4400\">opinions<\/a> about the ridiculous locations where robins choose to build their nests before.  I didn&#8217;t find this nest until it already eggs in it, which means it gets to stay, but it is only about 3 feet off the ground, so once those chirpy babies hatch out, I don&#8217;t give their survival very high odds.
