Robin's Nest - Baby birds with not so happy ending 

Crows are among one of the smartest birds.

Surviving sibling: I will have all the food henceforth. Crow: in your dreams!

"Perfectly balanced, as all things should be" -Thanos

Sparrow picks innocent worm to feed baby sparrow, Crow picks innocent baby sparrow to feed baby crow. Circle of life.

That spider passing by in the middle of the night was a bad omen. Creeeeepy. lol

I am a poultry farmer and I actually have crow feeding stations on each corner of my farm. They set up a territory and raise their families and protect them from preditory birds such as Hawks. My farm becomes highly protected from the birds that prey on my poultry. It's really neat watching them mob Hawks way bigger then them. They are my farmhands and I pay them in cracked corn. So I happen to like crows. 😉

Ron finally lost it, he took his sick vengeance upon becky’s and ben’s newborn babies. He just wanted to smash.

The crow was probably feeding its own chicks

As soon as it said “it’s a crow looking for a meal” I knew they were doomed 😭

It's sad but Mufasa said that's the "Circle of Life"

Awesome video, I really liked the captions that explained what was going on. Helped me understand what was happening a whole lot better!

I didn't know crows raided nests like this! Fascinating. Once it figured out it could get to the snack bin, that was that.

Crow is smart. He waited for them to get a bit bigger before taking them

For all the crow haters. We never see him eat them. He probably just abducted them to give them better lives.

I love that spider thats funny

Considering how fast robins breed this might be more beneficial to nature then it is to the crow

The ending was happy, for the crow. Everything in life can't always have a happy ending. In fact, few things do.

So I have a family of 5 crows in my backyard that over the past year I've become quite attached to They just recently built a new nest in one of our trees and there are eggs in it. I've been so excited about it for the past couple days until yesterday and today after seeing hawks and eagles circling the nest and dive bombing. It's made me a nervous wreck. And now I see this video and I guess it has put things back in perspective for me. That's the way of the wild and I just need to hope for the best

Incredible EvIdence, this is incredible research it’s fantastic how much robin behavior is shown here.

"I'll take one, ... No,no, make that TWO chickadee nuggets, and a flight"

When you realise the Crow patiently waited for the eggs to hatch 🤔

at the end i wanted to see the parents reaction of their baby being dead

LOL People seriously getting mad at the crow for being a crow basically. Geez. I'm surprised someone hasn't called the person who posted the video a murderer for not doing something. Reality is slipping away from the world.

Thanks for the details. Telling us as it unfold.

Me and my friends rescued a baby robin that fell from its nest. We couldn’t find her nest so we took her in. I told them to put her in the shed but nope “It’s too cold!” she was killed in the thunderstorm. R.i.p Gertrude. I love you.

Once again, a cunning and intelligent bird dominates over humble bird. I miss BBC videos about snakes. Love the way serpent shows its superiority over vermin like rats and mouses.

Amazing bird.Thanks for sharing this Friend.

I wanted the mum to come back and look devastated

Lol! Talk about fast food.

I like it how the bird's like 'nom' and steals the chicks. XD

Now I understand why the robins and other birds are always screaming in the trees near my creek. I figured that there was probably a hawk or other related species in the trees as I know there was one there at one time. Never thought about the crows eating the babies. The robins always seem to want to make a nest under my deck or near the canopy roof. I keep chasing them away because I'm constantly walking near there and they'd just get upset. This year I tried moving one of the nests that had eggs in it, but I'm not sure what happened. Last year I had a song sparrow (?) nest outside in one of the shelves where I keep the herb pots. She was in a bad spot so I moved her nest over next to the wall of the house where she'd be safer. There were eggs in the nest, which I did not touch. She came back to the new spot, sat on the eggs and as I passed by she didn't move, just looked at me. Every day when I walked passed there I'd look in on her (I couldn't have been more than a foot away from her) and she never moved off that nest, except to get food, and never seemed to be bothered by my talking to her. I left her a shallow dish of water. Eventually, the eggs hatched and she had four baby birds there. I took pictures of them when she went off to get food, but never touched them. Then, one day, they were all gone and haven't come back, but I still have the pics of the baby birds.

The robins will learn to put their nest more undercover. I have seen them in real tight hedges were crows or jays wouldn't go. They also love ledges under roofs were crows might not go into. Robins will often team up and attack a predatory bird in their area. they have a distinct alarm call and I can tell a cat or crow is in their area.

What I did 1. Put headphones on 2. Puts volume up 3. Puts the circle of life

Crow: Red Robin! YUM!

The symphony of nature in motion.

Lol nature is fun. Hey it was a happy ending, the crow got a good meal!

The one baby robin grew up and became The Crow Killer

It’s sad, but it’s nature.

This made my day

Gone, but not forgotten !

I love that everyone gets butthurt over a crow doing what it does. Like how do you think other animals eat? Lions kill zebra, smaller cats like lynx kill the cute fluffy mice, Its nature yah idiots. Weither its a crow eating babies or a lion eating a zebra they are only doing wjat instinct and hunger tell them to do. Get over it.

The crow brought them to heaven.

The robin should have known the crow would be back for the last baby once the nest was discovered.

That's so cute and sweet

I had always heard that this happens. They feed them to their own chicks.

Lol that's why moms need to stay at home

Although this is the way of nature, it still is very sad, and they are such cute fuzzy babies...

Great! Beautiful!

How do you tell the mom and the dad apart?

Do you think it was the same crow from earlier? If so, do think it knew to wait for the eggs to hatch and get fat before eating?

Lovely video

A very smart crow!

Crows are so cute omg 😍

5:28 That's one brave spider to crawl to a bird's nest. Haha!

For all people who are saying "its nature, let it be, do not intervene". I would also like to remind you that humans are also part of nature. What if something attack you or your family , it might be your fellow human or a ferocious animal, wouldn't you be glad that someone witnessing the situation would come and help you or you would say, "oh its nature..killing/attacking is a common thing, its part of life..so ignore what you are witnessing and leave..leave me alone ". is that what you truly wanted humans? all am saying is think before saying "its nature, you know".you are saying those things because you were not in that desperate situation, you were not involved . animals can appreciate help too..if you must know that. some animals in the wilds are fighting with their very best to stay alive, desperately waiting for back up. in these situation, it seems unfair to other side if you intervene but that's how it is. after all you cannot guard that particular animal prey all the time, it could lucky at this time, tomorrow maybe not..well that is.. nature..however if you could help it to live even just one more day..why not? if your principle is not to help the animal in distress then why we are compelled to help our fellow human who were in danger? that is also part of nature you know. danger is part of our world, its nature. got attacked by murderers,(human predators) or by other animals in the wild. seriously people?! nature?when you are in danger, you are desperately seeking help from others. don't you think it is the same with other species?

Thank you for this video. if we have bird nest like this, we will try to protect it with more branches.

I think we all knew what was gonna happen when it said ‘More from him later’ 😩

all those who would kill the crow...they dont realise its some lil birdy dad or mom...its food chain....each gets their turn MOTHER NATURE REALITIES!!!

Very beautiful 😍

Mums are so grateful. They dont even move if its rain heavily. I used to use armbrella to cover her on top and mum just look up and watching me. Didnt even move.

These Crows ain't loyal.

You can't eat just one. ..

Crow are super smart bird like a child with good memory

Best parenting 10/10

The stuff dreams are made of.

Lucky to be human

Crows are so cool. We have lots of them out here in the sticks.

Lmao he picks it up so casually

Ppl actually getting ANGRY at fcking nature 😂 -When humans who were given the gift of life, get mad at how life works 🤔

Nature's Programming

This is why you don’t leave your babies for five minutes

there are swift nests under many roof of my street (Geneva)... I happen to have seen many times as a crow try to pick up swift's chicks, stationary flying with his beak inside the nests... not sure it succeeded yet, but well, not like I can always watch

Sad, but this is needed to have a balance ecosystem🤕

Nature: red in tooth and claw

It’s a myth btw about interfering with the nest. Obviously don’t interfere but if you see a nest with intact eggs on the ground or a baby bird, you can safely relocate it to the nest/tree and exit out. The parents if they’re still around will still return. Help them out if you can. Fledglings when trying to fly will often fall out of the nest. Sadly this is nature, on average one even two babies don’t make it to adulthood, but a Robin/most birds lay multiple clutches (3+ eggs) in a season and they live for a couple of years. So the numbers work out.

That bird went Robbin

I’m confused, at the end it says an abandoned empty nest. Did the mother never come back? Did she just assume that when she left again that her second kid was just gonna get merked? Lol she straight up just never came back and let the crow eat her second one

where the hell was the father robin in all of this?!, why wasn't he there to fend off that damn crow!

Nice shot!!!^^ Good

I legit can't stand when mom or dad does not even try to put up even a little fight...

If you all view the crow as evil, what are you guy doing eating hamburger, huh?

That's actually a raven that attacked they're bigger

very cute

And after the second chick is gulped down, Mom and Dad busily set about laying another clutch of eggs, as they will continue to do throughout the summer. A couple of years ago I had a pair of robins set up housekeeping in a nest in a shrub by a living room window and they raised four clutches between April and September. Somewhere between 12 to 16 chicks, I don't remember the exact number. Most probably died, but some probably survived, that's how it goes.

Hopefully that crow gets his, from any hawk or eagle. All in that circle of life. Robins only get a 1 in 4 shot of making it to a yr. The predator list is long.

If a crow did that to songbirds near my house and I was aware of it, there would be no crows (plural) surviving my wrath for as long as I lived there. Some people say that this is nature. I agree it is nature. But guess what: I as a human am part of nature too! My actions against crows would be part of Nature!

Hi Joan, long time no see. How's the kids? Crow ate them.

wow thanks for share great video

*WhY dIdNt YoU sToP tHe CrOw?*

That was not a spider, by the way. That was a completely different genus of creepy crawly. :3

I'm crying now..this was too sad to watch..😥

Crows are very smart birds they earned my praise after the wallaby video they eat the ticks

I wanted to see moms reaction

Don't know how to say it I kinda like the crow flesh eating parasites always win

It's amazing there are as many robins as there are. They have a lot of predators. Robins are not good defenders and the most they can do is flap their wings. They often build their nests low to the ground, which means cats, snakes, and small mammals can get to them. They will build nests in exposed areas too, such as ledges, which means bigger birds can get to the nest like this crow. Owls and hawks eat other birds and they are smart. About the only thing robins can do is to hope that from the time they lay the eggs the chicks hatch and get out of the nest before being found.

The reality of life, the strong survive and the weak perish.

Best part was the crow taking the baby birds.

Why don't the dad and mom take turns watching them so they don't get eaten?

would cry from mothers reaction but its the circle of life

This fascinates me
