A pair of Robins checking out the new nest box

What can be more exciting than a pair of robins checking out the new nest box I made?


I converted an old bird feeder into a nest box, and placed it up high close to the roof so that it is safe from raccoons, skunks, opossums, and neighbours cats


And here are a pair of robins carefully checking it out from all angles!


Reminds me of how people sit on sofas in furniture stores, just to check out comfort 


Robins have built nests every year in the backyard


Whether they will decide to use this nest box as their home, GOD only knows


Next step is to see how I can use my old mobile phone (a Nokia N8 with a 12 megapixel Carl Zeiss camera) to transmit videos from the nest. I've painted it matte black, didn't like the bright silver  


Hoping the birds decide to stay!
