Omg a shiny
I’ll bet someone somewhere looked at this post with those beautiful eggs and thought “that’s the colour I want for my bridesmaids’ dresses”.

Teal colored with no spots means robin, teal with brown spots means blue jay.
Does anyone know why a bird’s eggs would be such a conspicuous color? Seems like it would be a disadvantage for being spotted by predators!

You mean to tell me that robin’s eggs are a shade of Robin’s egg blue? Preposterous.
Robins Egg Blue
Yes…. who would ever have thought that the blue color of a Robin’s eggs is actually Robin’s egg blue.
Robin’s eggs are the same color as “robin’s egg blue”?? Who knew.
Everyone who lives in non-urnan areas:
Yeah, that’s the color of Robin’s eggs
I’ve never been fond of the idea that one has to have a favorite color, but when pressed I’ve always said “Robin’s egg blue”.
Pretty dope, they brought you window-breakfast 🙏
What is with all the reference to ‘robin’s egg blue’ as a color ITT? I’ve never heard that before in my life and everyone in here is acting like it’s common knowledge. I would refer to this color as teal.
Is this a US v non-US thing? (I am US)
Beautiful
“I do not like green eggs and ham”
Why teal colored? Is there an evolutionary explanation?
Gorgeous color, gosh
Digital cameras do post processing in camera, so you never get “true” colors, but I’m sure this is a close representation.
This is cool. I get so many robins in my garden and I found one of these shells this week. Wondered what it was. Hope it hatched and wasn’t eaten!
*As I remember your eyes
Were bluer than robin’s eggs*
Damm Batman’s gon be a proud daddy
I just took a picture of the robins nest on my front door wreath. Thought this was the same picture at first and I was really confused how you got ahold of it .
Lovely egg color
Do we know why the eggs are this color?
You might call the color…robins egg blue
Fun fact: we know some dinosaur eggs were this color as well (Heyuannia, Deinonychus).
Get ready for lotsa poop.
Beautiful colour of the eggs and cozy nest. We have robins come into our garden for years, and I know they are nesting somewhere nearby, but never seen it.
Pop those bad boys straight in your mouth. Delicious chocolate filling.
they even named a color after the color of the robins eggs. they call it robins egg blue
Those eggs looks like gems. So pretty
Tiffany and thr Sleepy Beauty Mine congratulate the soon to be Robin Mama….
I wonder what color they are inside
sick!
Look very attractive for any predator on prowl..
You should eat them like they do in shrek
KRIS, I GOT THE [pipis]
