June 9, 2009 Sad fate
I'm sad to say I won't be shooting any more pictures of this little trio. Yesterday afternoon my wife heard quite a ruckus outside out front door - sounded like a loud crow and lots of other birds. She went out to investigate and spotted an enormous crow in our tree right by the robins nest. The crow flew away when she went out on the deck but there are no more baby robins. She called me and by the time I got out there the crow was high up in another tree watching us. Several robins began to fly around the crow so it took off. Largest crow I've ever seen.
We are so bummed - it had been a lot of fun watching these little birds develop.
I got a couple more here
