The birds have officially flown away now :( They're all grown up. But maybe there will be more birds next year!

They're exactly two weeks old now! And guess what? They started flying! I didn't get their first flight on camera, but the bird flew all the way across the street into my neighbor's garage.

Wow they are getting big! They're almost two weeks old now and they're looking more and more like adults every day.

I felt bad for the robins today! It's a good 93 degrees out today, and on top of that it's super humid and muggy! Sure, there's a breeze, but picture yourself on a day like today (and consider that last week it was rainy and almost 50 degrees), you're covered in feathers, and you're squished in a nest with another bird underneath a mailbox where basically no air flow is. Yeah, not very comfortable. Well, at least it's not snowing--this is Minnesota, people, so it's probably possible to have snow in May.

Nothing too different today...

I took a video today. Watch the end--the robin divebombs and almost hits me on the head! That's when I decided to go back inside...

If I were these birds, I'd be awfully squished. That nest barely looks big enough for one bird, nevertheless two! They're snuggled up against each other, but they're constantly asleep.
