This is a series of photographs over a 3 week period, from robin eggs to leaving the nest. Thanks to Kathleen Gay for the amazing sequence from her own backyard!

In the beginning…

Here they come!

The littlest is always the last to show up!

OK, so now I’m hungry, mom!

Sleeping…

Mom in charge and NOT happy with the project!

Here come our feathers…I’m itchy!

Mom is still standing guard.

Where are you, mom?

It’s getting crowded in here. Someone has got to move out!

First one to take flight landed on the window sill.

How cute am I?

Freedom at last!
