A robin has made its nest on our back deck.

Other years when a robin has tried to build a nest on a light fixture on our back deck, I have destroyed it because I didn't want it to ruin the light fixture.

This year I decided to let it go ahead and build its nest and I would document its progress.

Now you can see the baby chick grow.

The nest is on the light fixture.

Today the baby bird flew from its nest.
The nest is now completely empty.
