Southern Robin

It’s Outdoor Wednesday again with A Southern Daydreamer and that means it is time for a robin update!

They are growing so fast!

Not much room for mom now.

Ready for their closeup.

Looking out.

They are a singing trio.

3 peas in a pod.

Their eyes are open.

They keep mom on her toes.

Daddy too.

Here is dad keeping watch from a nearby tree.

They will be gone soon. I’m going to miss them.

Today’s Lagniappe: Shrimp Dip
My Mama used to make a similar version of this that I just loved with tortilla chips, enjoy!

1 can shrimp (4-6 oz.), diced
1 3-4 oz package cream cheese, softened
1/3 cup chili sauce
2 teaspoons grated horseradish
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon fresh dill, minced
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Mix all ingredients together well, adding the shrimp last.

Chill at least two hours or overnight.
