chick update

The four teeny robins are growing up so fast! When I first spied them they must have just hatched because they looked all embryonic and smooth. Yesterday their wings were visible - just the skeleton really but the feathers are starting to come in. The parents are spending all their time looking for worms and bringing them back to the nest. The chicks are hungry all the time. I got a little close for the mother's comfort and she almost dive-bombed me. I felt bad for upsetting her so I'll be staying away and watching through the window from now on.
