Young robins singing for their supper

University of Massachusetts campus, Amherst

Anne E. Ely, South Hadley,

While at the University of Massachusetts for the New England Camera Club Council Conference in July, I noticed this robin’s nest outside one of the buildings. There were three young robins that looked about ready to fledge, but were still being fed by the parents. Although unable to create a capture of them feeding, I did make this one of them singing for their supper using my tripod mounted DSLR camera and a medium length telephoto lens.
