A robin twice skimmed over my head while I was filming near Pool Pond, then led me to the source of a muddy patch caused by a leaking hose. Once I turned the water on, she went straight to work collecting mud for her nest.
Her mate later arrived and sang from the lilacs, while she continued building with steady purpose. What looked like an ordinary backyard moment became a reminder that nature is always communicating, if we stop long enough to notice.
