Another Baby

Now this is a curious one. For weeks I've believed I only had one Robin chick this year and I've watched him daily on the feeder. Today Alan took a photo of him with his new red chest plumage just appearing which made me feel almost proud. It's like, buying new school uniform time packing their lunch box and sending them off on their first adventure. This was all amazing until this afternoon and I spotted this little fellow on my feeder, without the newly emerging red breast feathers! So all this time I have two Robin chicks without ever knowing it.
