A STRANGE°HOME - One of the school buses from Mu,phy's Bus Lines has been befriended by a Robin. About one week ago employees of Murphy's noticed a lot of straw and debris sticking out from under the hood of their newest school bus. Upon fur- ther investigation they found a nest had been built in one of its fender wells. The nest contained three eggs. While the mother has "flown the coop" every time the bus gets ready to pull out. Murphy employees say the nest has travelled a lot of miles. And, despite the fact that the bus is parked in a different location every time it returns to the Murphy's lot, employees say the mother never has any problems relocating her family. They are convinced she must know how to read. Ed McLean is the driver of the bus. and has been nicknamed, "daddy". Mcllwraith photo.
