Robin's nest under my window

Baby robins, day three
Baby robins - day  3
May 30 - The chicks are little less pink and less sore looking than they were yesterday.

The male and female robin got into a confrontation with another bird this afternoon. A starling was hanging around and maybe acted a little too interested in the robins' nest. Mama robin dove to the ground and stumbled around with her wing extended as if she were injured. While the starling watched the female robin, the male robin attacked the starling. This went on for a few minutes until the starling decided it had had enough & flew away.
