Olympia and Poseidon, Golden, Silver and Bronze

Last June, 2018, one Robbin was born above my front door , I named her Olympia in honor of the athletes competing in the FINA WORLD Artistic Swimming Championships.

We are hoping they will be added to the 2020 Olympics, and since I am the coach of the first male in the sport and he won the first gold medal in the event in Kazan Russia, I feel this is a blessing and a sign, especially since they came back and then Olympia gave us three chicks,
Golden, Silver, and Bronze!

I have a lot of lovely pictures of them I took from behind the window in my dark garage, I never use my front door while they were above it, I always just use my garage.

I enjoyed watching them through the entire nesting process. Olympia was here much longer than the checks, Olympia and Poseidon I should say.

After they left, which was two days after Mother’s Day :( . I waited a few days then cleaned away everything.

A week later Olympia and Poseidon started building
again! Within four days they had a new nest and now are on round two for 2019!
