Aw, that's so sad!
Though I am sure your feelings about it have lasted much longer than the flighty mother's.

This reminds me of a rueful experience I had with a robin and her nest.  I once had a side deck that I seldom went out upon as I was in the habit of spending time on the opposite side of the place.  One day I went out there to sweep up bits of straw when I noticed that up over the light fixture was a bunch of dried grass.  It never occured to me that it was a robin's nest until as I pulled it off to clean, three beautiful blue eggs fell to the decking and broke.  As long as I lived there, no robin frequented that place again.
