Babies are cute...

. . .no matter how ugly.

If you recall from a previous post, some creative robins decided that a boat motor was a pretty good place for a nest. That's true, unless you intend to put the boat in the water soon!

Daddy wasn't very happy with me checking things out.
(Mom was around too, just not in these pictures)


See? Ugly but cute. Especially the way they cuddled together. (slight problem though. . .they look more like ostrichs than robins. I wonder if the eggs got switched, and how long they'll fit in the nest. . .?)


Dad stuck pretty close to me, while mom generally watched from farther away. Here, he was about 4 feet away from me on a tree branch.


FEED ME! FEED ME! (so it's not just Gizmo, huh?)



Baby three was hatched the next day. Next week is moving week, since the boat will be in use. Hope they're ready for the move to their new nesting location by then!
