It's What's For Dinner

Not appetizing for you, but some little robins who live in a nest on a supporting beam of my front porch seem to think it is just wonderful. I was irritating momma Robin as she sat on the line waiting for me to leave the 2 step ladder I was on as I tried to capture a shot of the babies. She eventually couldn't wait longer and came to quickly stuff the food down their little beaks and was off again before I could get a really good shot. I will try again.

Never argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

Lovely shot Cindy, be careful not to get too close for too long the parents could abandon the nest.

Very cool capture Cindy but do be careful on that ladder - my husband went backwards off exactly that kind of ladder last month and got himself a mild concussion and assorted bruises and dents!

I don't Think you'll have to, as That's quite an Impressive Catch you have Here! Nice angle with the Line, and Some vivid Clarity. I think You're right, though... She does look Flabbergasted!

Not appetising ?! Speak for yourself, dear agent.
I would eat even wasp or a spider provided this is prepared and served properly. Like here exactly. LOL
I would be cautious about this ladder that you are standing on, too....

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

This is lovely Cindy. My parents have had a family of Robins nesting in their garden the past 3 Springs, but always seem to miss when they fly the nest. Your Robin is coloured different to ours over here in England. Great colour, clarity and light you have captured here. Well done!

Excellent shot Cindy, looks almost like a mixed salad for the little ones, lol. Outstanding composition and you'll really have to be super fast to catch the feeding

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
