This is a baby Robin in a nest outside of my bathroom window. There are three little babies in the nest. It's so exciting to be able to watch them up close. This little guy was really wanting his Mother to come back to feed him!

Oh Cheryl, I am really jealous. What a sight! I love this capture--amazing shallow depth of field to isolate him in such great detail and the light is just right. Spring always brings baby bird photos but this is one of the sharpest I've seen--and I love his open mouth! #909023

How lucky you are to watch them grow. This is really a outstanding capture. Wonderful detail and clarity. I was lucky to capture newly hatched blue birds. Enjoy your show you will love it. #5845571

Thank you so much everyone! I am really enjoying watching these little guys. It's part of my daily activity now. I love when it's feeding time and Momma bird goes away for awhile. I can peek through the window at them. They sleep a lot just like babies do. You can tell when they are hungry, their little mouths are wide open! :-) It's amazing how much those babies eat. The mother comes back to the nest with a mouth full of wiggly worms. Eewwwww! :-) #5845799
