Deb, you did so well with this image of baby Robbins. There is a bit of an illusion. The open mouths look like flowers.

Canon Power Shot SX40 HSInspiration
I started taking pics every 2 days once the Robins hatched. Wanted to see how fast they actually grew in 4 weeks. I was amazed in their changes every other day...very noticeable and almost full grown at 4 weeks.Editing
I did cropping a just a twinge of contrast and shadow adjustment.In my camera bag

Try to get as close as possible without scaring their parents away and zoom in. Late afternoon or early morning lighting is best. I started going to the tree every day once they were nesting so they could get use to me.
