Mama bird...

We returned from Spring break to find a nest at our front door.  I love to watch birds and promptly instructed everyone to not use the front door.  What followed was about 4 weeks of watching Mama bird sit on her 3 eggs, her 3 babies hatch, Mama working hard to feed them (and squawking at us when she couldn't get near them), and then her 3 babies leaving the nest.


Of course I had to document this little robin family.  Ran a lot of parallels to my 3 babies and how one day they will leave my nest.  Here are the photos of our robins.

Getting bigger - lots of feathers 

The day they flew out of the nest.  They were practically laying on top of one another.  All three are still in the nest but you can only see 2 right here with the biggest on top of the smaller two.
