Robin chicks

Before I mention anything else, I must clarify that the images below were not taken by me. I wish they had though because they are very good. Both images have a Robin nest, and they were taken by 2 different people. The first picture is from my Auntie Rose, taken in Scotland when she was visiting, and shows a group of Robins not long before fledging. The bottom 2 were taken by my dad's work colleague, Edwin. These are at an early stage, and don't look like fledging any time soon. Here they are:




Our next-door neighbour's garden had a natural Robin nest in a lowish hedge/bush, and I managed to get a photo of one of the fledgelings. The parents fed the chicks fairly frequently, when they were in the nest. Here is one of the pics I took:

Thank you Rose and Edwin for these pics to enable me to do this post.

BTW, I have a memory card for my camera now, so I should be able to take some more photos for more posts soon.
