Hi all,
Having a dilemma as I think a pair of robins might be nesting in a really bad place where the neighbours cat will surely get them. I'm a newbie with this sort of thing and not sure if it's kinder to scare them away in the hope they find somewhere better to nest. It is only today I have seen the female accompany the male (they were feeding together for a short while before flying into the small bush). Until now I have only seen the male hanging around (either near the bush or sometimes he accompanies the blackbird!). I don't usually know what goes on in the garden as I have only really just started watching and feeding the birds for a couple of weeks! Will the robins likely have eggs already?
Thanks for any advice, the cats are a real worry as they could walk right into the bush if they wanted to.
