CJ,This is a delightful series. I hope you pull together the series into a group so that you can see the whole process from eggs to fledging. It will be sort of sad when they leave the nest. Thanks for posting these.

There will be alot of disappointed people on usefilm when these little birdies fly away! Great dof - and priceless capture. A little something distracting in the right bottom corner - and wow, are they ever getting crowded in that nest, someone is going to fall out! Thanks CJ - I look forward to these.

Priceless, you can see right down their little throats! If I have to be picky - it would be that the mom's head and eyes could be a little sharper focus.

Wow, they are changing so fast - feathers already - our robins don't even have their nest finished yet! Lucky you having these so close to watch and photograph - and lucky us to get to see it on usefilm. Nice capture once again. Thanks.

Actually, I'm kind of embarassed to admit how easy the robins made it for me to get these pictures. They built their nest about 20 inches from our living room window, and about 6 inches below it. I can literally take these photos from the comfort of a rocking chair. I am really enjoying watching them change day to day, and I'm pleased to hear others are too from all the comments they've garnered on usefilm. Rumor has it they will be fledged by Monday of next week (at age 2 weeks), so I'm trying to photograph them lots now, while I have the opportunity. Thanks for your comment.

Hi CJ, I really like this whole series! Pretty neat! But, I wonder how you take these pictures. Do you actually climb up in the tree to take them, or do you have a handy window that's really high?
Good work!

CJ and the birds are back - yeah!!! I came back on here tonight just to check if you were going to upload an update of the babies. They are still kinda ugly and beautiful all at the same time, but just a fabulous picture - thanks so much for these, and....keep posting of course.

This is a very nice behavioral shot. The mother sitting the nest protecting the brood from the rain. The leaves in the forground depicting the seclusion the parents chose this location for in the first place. This tells a very nice story. Thanks for sharing.

Hello:
When looking at the thumbnail, I couldn't quite make out what it was. I like the idea, but think that the eye of the Robin should be sharp in focus, after all, it's a portrait. I also find the leaves in the foreground distracting, but I guess there is not much you can do about that.

This is so awesome CJ! Fantastic capture - I will be watching for more. I am looking forward to our baby robbins - they are nesting in the support beam of our deck right now. (actually strangely enuf they are building 11 nests at once??? - condos I guess hehe) I won't have as direct a view as you do so I won't promise any great pictures.

I'm hoping to post a photo of these little guys every couple days as they grow.. as long as the mother doesn't seem to mind.. right now she seems perfectly fine with us leaning out the window to see what's gone on since we last checked. She sits on the nearby fence and watches, but never seems disturbed or flustered. As long as that continues, I'll keep posting! Photo 2939 is cool too! Those babies seem to be a little further along than these robins... but still not all that attractive. I'm really going to enjoy watching the transformation from the featherless blobs they are now, into beautiful birds. Thanks for the comment.

CJ, this is a terrific series. Baby birds in the nest are not that easy to shoot...we had a go at it last year. Check out #2939. This shot is great because the way the birds are leaning against each other. Keep them coming!
