Baby birds have hatched

If you remember our earlier bird post, you'll recall that when we left for vacation, there were 3 beautiful blue robin eggs in a nest on our porch. As soon as we got home, we ran outside to check the nest. We discovered two tiny robins and one egg that didn't hatch for some reason. Mama Robin was not thrilled that her quiet porch area had been invaded our family. Her loud chirps and close fly-by's tried to deter our observations of her babies. In the last week she has become more comfortable with our presence on the deck and will feed them with us only a few feet away. Here is a closeup video of the babies. It is amazing how far their little necks instinctively stretch up to receive food from momma bird. It has been a great conversation starter with the kids about how awesome God is and the wonders and perfection of His creation.
