The Robin's Nest

"The Robin is the One
That speechless from her Nest
Submit that Home -- and Certainty
And Sanctity, are best"

-Emily Dickinson, The Robin is the One 

These robin chicks took up residence in Michele & Tripp's hanging plant on their farmer's porch in New Hampshire for the past month or so.  The last photo was taken seconds before the inaugural flight of one of the chicks.  The other two took flight the next day.  Thanks Michele for sharing these beautiful photos, it must have been exciting to watch.
