Mother Robin and her Babies

We were visiting my father in Burk's Falls a couple of weeks ago, and I was able to capture some photos of a robin feeding her young ... or maybe it was the father feeding his young. The  robin was quite curious about me taking pictures, but was not very nervous. She is used to my dad walking around, and mowing the lawn near the nest.

The nest is built under the eaves of a shed, and is sitting on top of a ladder that's hanging on the shed. I think the baby robins aren't very pretty, but it doesn't matter to the parents. They were certainly ready for food each time the robin came.

I'm glad I can add these photos to my collection of robin photos. It was interesting watching the adult birds care for their young. God cares for each of us, far more than the robin cares for its young. This is a wonderful thought.
