Baby birds

This morning my sister came over and we were telling her about the nests. She got on a chair and looked in the ginny wren nest that I hadn't been able to see in and saw 5 eggs! Yeah, we are so excited :)

Our ginny wren eggs


We noticed a few days ago that our robin was doing a whole lot of sitting and rarely left the nest in fact we were able to walk out the front door and leave w/o her flying out (the only time she would leave was if you approached the tree the nest was in). Well when my sister peeked in the robin's nest this is what she saw...



We had 4 eggs and the best we can tell it looks like 2 have hatched. I plan to check again tomorrow and see if any more have hatched. We are so excited about our baby birds :)
