baby robins :: day 5

I set up my tripod and got gradually closer and closer so I could get a picture of the mom on the nest.

It ended up blurry because I was under a swift attack. The mama was really brave today. I could feel her wing against my hair. I’m afraid tomorrow I may really get pecked. I may have to talk Barry into giving it a try.

The babies look much bigger, probably double what they were when they hatched, and much darker. I wonder when their eyes will open.

“Hey Logan, today is going to be a ‘Jonah day’ for you. You know why? ‘Cause I’m going to play with you all day long and be nice to you and make you breakfast and get you your me-me if you get sad.”

 

“I love you, Jonah…”

Since my husband had the day off we used my 4 hours of babysitting (which on most weeks will be for art making) to go on a date. We went out to lunch and tried shopping, but walks outside are our favorite.
