Baby Robins 1 Week Old

Isn't it amazing how much the babies have  grown in just 1 week! They now have their eyes open and are getting real feathers. Oh, and I can now hear them chirping when Mom comes with food. I had thought I heard it before, but it was very faint. They now have stronger voices too.  It's fun to watch mom try and sit in the nest as there really isn't room for her. She gets a foot on each side, tries to gather the babies under her and then sort of perches on the top. She is away from the nest more and more as she is gathering food.
