Dear All,                Apr 27, 2009
    This afternoon I resumed turning a compost windrow, that I had started 
on yesterday, and found a Robin's egg on top of the unturned pile; stone 
cold but otherwise undamaged.

    We have the odd Jay and a Squirrel but am aware of no nearby Robin's 
nest; the first Robin in the yard having been seen early this morning, right 
by the compost windrow.

    Could a Robin be dumb enough to deposit an egg in an unnest and then 
take off ?

Yt, DW, Kentville
