A MOTHER robin feeds her hungry brood of four chicks after taking up residence in a nest built inside a wreath hanging on the front door of the Schnelle home. This photo was captured by the telephoto lens of photographer Jack Schnelle who was surprised to come home and find the feathered tenants. The Schnelles are keeping their distance from the nest until the chicks are mature enough to fly away. (Jack Schnelle Photo)
