Ester gets confused and tries to feed her reflection in the glass

 

6-46 am this morning and the first bit of egg shell is seen

 

 
 
Ester eats up the shell to replace some of the nutrients she lost laying all these eggs, you can just see the first chick

 

 
Within minutes it lifts its little head for food

 

 
 
A better view of the chick in this shot

 

Ester digs down in the nest again, another egg is hatching and she is helping the chick, out of the shell

 

 
 
Leaving nothing to waste she eats this shell also

 

The first view of the second chick, just proves we are useless at maths, we thought we had a few days still to go

 

 
 
8.27 am now and she is eating some shell again this must be the third chick hatched this morning
Its just amazing how they lift that heavy head up, to beg for food, and now there are three

 

 
 
The feeding starts in earnest now

 

Just after 9.30 and another egg shell

 

 
 
Here is the proof four little chicks
The proud parents look over their brood

 

 
 
A lucky photo of the two Robin chicks, seen here at the bird bath
