Those are the blackbird babies. I believe all five eggs hatched. You can see the 5th one tucked down in the middle of the rest. It was kinda hard to get a good pic because I can't see into the nest, so I just had to hold the camera up there and guess. Of course they were moving, too, and I didn't want to disturb them for too long, so this is the best of the 2 pics I took.
As for the robin eggs, I'm afraid those got abandoned. Something had broken one of the eggs. Poor parents... all that work for nothing!
Speaking of baby birds, check out the 4 newly-hatched peregrine falcons on the live birdcam!

Whew! Five babies! Thats a lot of work!
Yeah. I suggest you stick to one at a time.
6 days!!!!!!!!! :)
You're on to something with your observation of how quick this all happens. Just watch now how fast they'll be out of the nest.
