Young Robin

This morning I had my coffee in the yard, in the sun, with the three dogs and my roommate's cat, Kitty. I walked around scoping out the place I'd put a small vegetable garden and noticed a pair of Robins chirping furiously at me (and I'm sure the cat as well). I thought there might be a nest nearby and I was partly right.



The Robins weren't protecting a nest, but a juvenile Robin.
I was able to catch this picture of him below.

This is Kitty.



This is a Stellar Jay that I also saw this morning. It's not a conventionally great picture, but I like it because if you zoom in, you can see a front view of his face. Hopefully soon I will use it as reference for a bird sketch.
