It is my sad duty to report that the (not) Robin chicks are no longer with us. I received the news from Michelle in a phone call last night after arriving in the UK.
From what I can gather, one or both of our cats - pictured here in an archive photo - had been biding their time and pounced when the babies made their first attempts to leave the nest and figure out how to fly.
We are pretty upset about this actually. After all the excitement and joy of seeing their nesting efforts be successful this year for it to all end in this way is, well, I'm speechless actually.

They look like crimanals to me.

Thanks for correcting yourself. I'm not quite sure what to make of your first comment. ;)
