Every morning I look out the bathroom window and see that empty robin’s nest. She built it and sat on in it for several days. There are probably eggs in it. Cats sometimes sit in that window. And that might have scared her off. She had no way of knowing the cat six feet away from her could not reach her through the screen. I just feel sad. Every morning. She has been gone over a week and I know she is not returning. I just feel sad about the whole thing and wish I could do something but there isn’t anything I can do–just stare out the window and look at the empty nest.

Both my wife and I felt bad about the robin that built a nest just outside our bathroom window in the nearby tree. She said it spent a few days sitting on the nest and then never returned. Maybe our cat who sometimes sits (??? in at) the window ten feet away from the nest frightened it away. And of course there is a bit of traffic to and fro the bathroom during the day. I was really curious whether there were any eggs in the nest. I am going to take a ladder under the tree and find out. I know birds sometimes abandon their nests. Both of us felt bad about it.
