I'm hungry!
Some of you will know that I’ve been following the progress of these little robins since I spotted the eggs in a nest in our garden shed. And I’ve been stalking them since, much to the bemusement of their mum who I keep disturbing… They are now at the stage that they ask for food whenever they hear any noise which they think might be bringing food…

These are wonderful!!! The mom must be very patient with you! :-)
monocotylidono replied
Thanks Ann – Not sure if she was patient or just tolerant… She tends to wander off when I gat too near :-)

This is a great series George! Can’t wait to see what comes next. :)
monocotylidono replied
Ohhh I don’t know if there will be more. I’d like to catch a chic as they are starting to learn to fly, or get one with the mum feeding them, but I don’t think I have the patience… :-)
JKKimball
such a artful series George! well done my friend!
monocotylidono replied
Many thanks John – the birds have been very accommodating… And the fact that the nest is at eye level rather than up a tree, also helps :-)
