Looking After The Kids

A breeding pair of Robins have been nesting in the ivy in a quiet corner of the garden, they have been flying too and fro every few minutes for the last few days, carrying food for the chicks or clearing out the nest. In human terms it would be exhausting. Here's just a brief video of their activity, just imagine doing that for 12+ hours a day - if you listen really hard you can hear the chicks tweeting when the parents enter the nest, they are very fast though, blink and you will miss it!
