Four Baby Birdies Sittin' In a Tree.

We are so happy Mama Robin felt the tree

 directly outside our dining room window was  

a suitable spot to build her nest. 

We couldn't have asked for a better 

observation spot. At first, she would fly away 

if any one of us approached the window, making 

it quite difficult to get a good picture of her sitting

on her eggs. 

Though now, she must be feeling a bit more 

comfortable with our curiousity. She will stay

if we approach slowly, but she

 doesn't move a muscle and keeps 

a watchful eye on us.

The eggs hatched about 1-2 weeks ago. It's been 

amazing watching them grow.

 They went from looking nothing like a bird at all

to these cute, fuzzy creatures. 

I thought the fuzz on these sweet baby robins

in the photo above was a great match for  

timberwolf, this week's color on Project 64. 

Head on over and check out some of 

 other great finds!

These photos were taken just after Mama fed them. 

I've tried to capture them with their little mouths open, 

but have been unsuccessful to this point.

Mama might not know it, but she's got 

four extra sets of eyes watching to 

make sure her babies stay safe in their nest.
