@Region Philbis,
that's what i was thinking too, i notice he tried to keep the littlest one away for the most part

here's a juvenile robin, a little hard to see in the first pic, pretty much right in the middle

Waves back at Izzie.

dj, That little robin is probably gearing up for the first flight. Baby birds grow up fast.

@Roberta,
it made little short flights between the branches while i was trying to get a shot of it's fuzzy splotchy red breast, the only reason i noticed him, was because i kept seeing the robin fly up to the branch for a few seconds and then back down

@djjd62,
I guess you have to start somewhere, flightwise. I've been watching falcons on a high perch on top of a building in Pennsylvania. Not much room for error there. It's a long way down. That first flight had better be a good one. The fledglings have been flappying like crazy.

reg, Thanks for the pit fix. Excellent choices.

dj, Thanks for reposting those pix. That is one terrific-looking dog. Bluejay's cracking open a peanut? Do you have peanuts growing in your neck of the woods? Bluejays are wonderfully blue. Also like their pointy heads.

@Roberta,
the neighbour two doors over puts out peanuts in the shell for the bluejays, they seem to like opening them in our big maple tree

I had a craving for peanuts a while back. Got it satisfied. Didn't need a neighbor or a maple tree. Just opened a can. We humans have it easy.
