Mayhew 1947 Western Robin 30. May 23 U.C. campus, Alameda Co., Calif. began pushing on the breast of the f with their heads. However, she ignored them. At 7:59 A.M. she left the nest + flew low & the north-west. I can see the heads of the youngsters above the edge of the nest— their bills are closed, but are pointing straight up. Now they have settled back in the nest (8:00 A.M.). At 8:02 A.M., the o? landed on the lowest branch of the tree that contains the nest. He sat there until 8:04 A.M. when the f flew to the nest. This caused the male to leave the tree + fly to a stump about 40 feet from the nest. The f fed 2 youngsters, ate what I definitely could see was an excretion pellet, then flew to the head of the statue of the football player about 60 feet from the nest, + began to groom her remige. At 8:06 A.M. the o? then flew to the nest, fed one youngster, + then flew away to the south-west. At 8:12 A.M., the f returned to the west edge of the nest, fed one youngster, atte one excretion pellet, + flew low back to the north-west. At 8:18 A.M. the f arrived with a large load of worms. She fed one youngster, but he had trouble with one large worm. It stuck out of his mouth for several inches. Finally the f put the loose end of the worm in the mouth of another youngster, & the two shared it.
