| These
babies are not alone!
- Mom
and dad keep a close eye as the babies wander around for three
weeks.
- When
mom sits on a new batch of eggs, dad takes over. He feeds the
kids and teaches them lessons: How to hide behind a bush, what
not to be scared of (lawnmowers next door), and the best place
to find food (a cherry tree).
- At
night, dad and the babies all gather on a branch to sleep together
(called roosting).
- So
when you see a robin baby on the ground, leave it alone and let
mom and dad do their jobs!
