My husband and I have watched a mother Robin build her nest in the Lilac tree next to the deck. We heard the babies in the nest every time they were being feed. Then one day I was standing in the front yard chatting with my neighbor, and I heard the birds chirping loudly. We looked over and there was a little baby robin on the ground and a cat about 2 inches behind. I yelled at the cat and it took off.
Now I have made it my mission to keep the cats away from the 2 baby robins until they can fly. My reward was the 2nd day outside my window, the 2 baby robins spent time right outside my window while I worked at my computer. I have heard the mother chirp loudly when the cat approaches the birds and I can scare him off. The cat just will not give up. One neighbor agreed to keep their cat indoors, so I just have the one cat to contend with. When my husband is home he is chasing the cat off as well. Determined cat!! I hope the 2 baby birds survive. They are so fragile.
