Hi all,

I too am seeing a great deal of activity with the crows robbing nests, etc.
It breaks my heart sometimes, especially after watching Mother Robin sit on
her eggs and faithfully defend them for days on end, only to lose them after
all. I asked my husband what he thought we should do about it, and he said,
"Remember the Prime Directive." His Star Trek analogy is humorous, but
fitting. Let nature take it's intended course, don't interfere, and enjoy the
role of spectator.
