and the old Robins would frequently remain perched on it, looking at the 

 passers by. 



It is a singular fact that these little Robins have continued regularly 

 to visit the same spot, coming inside the door to be fed several times 

 every day during the whole summer, frequently surrounded by five or six 

 juveniles, all anxious to be first in feeding their pets. 



In the beginning of February this year, the watering-pot which had 

 been in use during the summer, was again hung on the same nail, and 

 on the 11th. they commenced building, and a very snug little nest they 

 have made; five eggs have been laid, and while I am writing this account 

 the little bird is now sitting on them. She is often looked at during the 

 day, which does not appear to cause her any alarm, and this winter they 

 have frequently eaten from the hand. — Church of England Sunday Scholars'
