How long does it take for a Robin chick to mature?

In this case study they took thirteen days to leave the nest after hatching.

This projects starts off quite simply with a collection of pictures but toward the end, life happened and I had to resort to adding words as I failed to capture the necessary imagery. In most cases I didn’t even think to use a camera.

Stephen Durbin had a great idea to add navigation buttons to each post. I’ve just finished adding the links, what a pain. Thanks Steve…

    Wonderful! One suggestion though, set it to open the links in the same window so a person isn’t left with opening and closing that many pages. :)

    Beautiful photographs and a good story!
