And Then There Were Two...
I don't know what happened or when it happened but we seem to only have two baby Robins now. They sure were hungry today though and look how they are growing!
Feed me Mama!!
Here's Mama waiting for me to finish taking pictures.

Seems really late in the year for newborn robins. I would have thought late spring???
It does seem late, doesn't it? I've actually seen another Robin feeding her fully grown baby around here lately. I guess we're lucky that 2/3's have survived! I just wonder where the heck the missing baby went since there were no "physical signs" of him anywhere near the tree! Maybe he was "snatched"!

Oh no! According to this website, "[o]nly about one quarter of all young American robins will survive the summer in which they were born."
