Image Details:

Robin chicks in the nest. They were already fully fledged and left the nest the next day. In contrast to the orange-breasted adults, the plumage on the chest of juvenile birds is orange with black spots. The nest was built on a lantern under a canopy at the entrance to the building, just above the front door through which many people constantly enter and leave. Brave parents!
