Okay I confess. After all the speeches I gave the children about the food chain and letting nature take its' course, yesterday, as I was lying in the bathtub, I may have said something along the lines of "Um, God? I know they're just robins and the baby crows have to eat too, but it sure would be nice if this experience lasted a bit longer."
And 24 hours later, there are still three. So, thanks God, for another day of baby robin watching.
This video is from this morning - I always mean to stop videoing before the fecal sac emerges but I always forget. As you can see, there seems to be a lot of jostling for space going on.
Read from the bottom - I didn't start the blog until we'd been filming one bird sitting on a nest for 12 days and the babies hatched. Apparently 60% of baby robins do not survive the nesting phase - let's see how far these ones get!
Hi. My name is Susan, and I am, in no particular order, a wife and mother and writer and dog-walker. My life belongs to God, and some days I even show that in how I live.
