New blueberries, a pair of robins, and some seedlings

Our blueberry order from Miller Nurseries arrived and our new plants are planted in the raised bed! Four each of Northcountry, Northblue, and Northsky low-bush blueberry plants plus one each of Polaris and Chippewa mid-bush blueberry plants.

Plus in other news, it looks like we have a pair of robins nesting over our front door. Now I might expect that from a phoebe, but not a robin! Pretty cool! Hopefully they are as successful as the pair of killdeer that nested in our driveway last year!
