Took me a while to figure out there was a nest hiding in amongst my grapevines, but once I did, look what I found!  Baby robins! Just a couple of days old here I think.  I shot these precariously from a ladder, but really wish I had a taller ladder to really get in there.

The nest becoming very crowded -you can't tell, but the dominant baby is sitting on his two siblings. Day 8.

First robin to leave the nest! About 10 days old -can you believe it??

There's Momma Robin up on top of the fence post watching over the first baby to leave the nest. He's down on the grass in the bottom left.

These two were very relieved when big bro left, now they have some room to stretch their wings.

Empty nest. By day 12, all the babies are gone. So sad, we really enjoyed watching them grow. I still see them around & even spotted one visiting the nest the other day.
