I went to check again on the baby robins under my deck. They were all squished, one on top of the other. As I stepped back to leave, one of them got startled and they all four flew out in different directions. I was worried that they weren’t ready. Some landed on the ground for a few seconds, but then flew up into the trees, thankfully!

The mom came and squawked at me for a bit when she returned with a worm in her beak and she kept coming back for the rest of the day to make sure they were gone.

But they were ready! Even if I inadvertently startled them into leaving early.

Such fun to watch them progress from eggs right to flown!
