~ Robins ~

An exciting surprise beside the back veranda of the home
I visited in Lincoln Park, Michigan


These two babies spent most of their time
scanning the sky for mama robin


Mamma robin stayed busy delivering worms & bugs


The babies always wanted more....


and more....


Mamma Robin would take something from the nest every time she left


Sometimes a bit of grass, more often something bright white....


Mystery solved ~ Baby bird poopies ~!


More worms.....


A little preening...


The first baby takes the leap and lands in the neighbor's yard


Mamma checks out the situation


Here she comes with dinner...


Nope, she teases baby and flies away...



Mama joins baby.... dinner time?


Not yet ~ off goes Mamma again....


Mamma is getting baby to exercise his wings


Good job ~! Baby gets fed


More please....


Follow me ~!


Mamma doesn't forget about the last baby in the nest
