Baby Bird

Well, look what we have on the edge of our roof! A robin's nest, complete with baby robin. Our house has a covered front porch that connects with the house roof about a foot or so above the edge - providing cover for mama bird to build a rather substantial nest and be out of the elements. I won't go into how far up I had to climb to get these pictures - let's just say it would've easily broken my neck if I'd fallen backward. You can hear the little chick crying for food (mama departs as soon as someone comes outside).
