    Whatcha doing out here son...   This is our surviving baby robin.  After our neighborhood hawk attacked the nest last evening this poor little guy fell out of the nest.  I think he was hanging on to the edge for dear life but just couldn't get himself back in.  He spent the day under a bush under the tree.  When the sun came out he hopped out into the sunny grass and snuggled in.  Hopefully he can survive on the ground long enough to learn to fly.

    Worth the wait...   Today we got a good look at our baby robins.  There seems to be just two of them.  The leaves on the tree were in the way to see the second one but this was the best shot of the day.  The parents allow me to walk up to within about 20 feet of the tree without having too many issues.  They only swooped at me once while I waited for the babies to pop their little heads up.  There are two other views of the babies in the photos below.  Then there is one more photo of more wildlife in our front yard.    You can click on the photos to make them bigger to see all the details.
