For three weeks i was lucky to have had these birds (robins) nesting in my garage on a shelf, i had to make up a one bulb lamp on a moveable arm which aimed at the shelf to give me more light, and i stood on a low stool about 5 feet from the shelf with the lamp arm over my shoulder, (i wouldnt use flash as it startled the chicks) these images just show shots i got whilst they were feeding and soon to leave the nest.
Photo's are'nt the best:rolleyes: but i had great fun with them, and learnt alot from studying these birds nesting and bringing up their young.:D

Bev,

You seem to have a wildlife sanctuary on your door step - Nice shots.

#4 with the insect in the mouth is great.

Beautiful shots Bev, sounds like you found a creative solution to the lighting problem too.

Love the moment captured in #1 and the "bed head" capture of #2 is great.

I can imagine the joy you had with this family.
