Well, our little feathered family is hatched and almost ready to leave the nest...
~ the robins, not my kids, that is...
She sat and warmed them, and knitted little birdie booties...until one day.... 
..as the days pass - Momma keeps busy pulling worms, regurgitating, and feeding.... 
until eventually even Momma got booted from the nest -
For baby birds, just like kids - take over the "hood" and make a mess of everything...
(notice the little white dooties on the wall there...)
Pretty soon, Momma will be living out the empty nest syndrome....
~ by celebrating with a cup of coffee and a fresh worm quiche.

Oh how neat you could take progressive pictures like this! I am amazed. Thanks for sharing.
They look like grandmama~~i kid!
Yeah, save me some of that quiche
to all - Momma made the one mistake to make this nest almost eye level under the deck - i snapped the pics, as she called wildly from the tree behind me. the chicks are getting good about closing their eyes as the flash goes off - so i try to take them without using the flash....
glad you enjoyed this small mystery of spring, that is unique to the cycle of life. I am too.
Great photo montage, though I'm late to the birthday party. Isn't spring grand?
