Yeah, we really got lucky this time. Usually they build their nest up high and we could only guess at what’s happening from the sounds they make. I’m glad the other predators in the garden didn’t bother their nest this time too.

[...] Hungry in the Garden Posted by: JMom in backyard, tags: birds, photograph // This is my favorite shot in the series of nest photos. See, a couple of robins started building a nest in our garden early in the spring. We were amazed that they didn’t build their nest high up in the tree like they normally do. Instead, they built it quite low, on the ledge of our grape trellis. Low enough that if I hold up my camera, I could see into the nest. I managed to capture shots of the eggs until the nestlings hatched and flew from the nest. Check out the photos in our backyard. [...]

Hi Ate Jean! You are so lucky to witness these birdies growth. I also love your fave shot…parang caught in the hungry act. =)

Hello to the robins in your background. I thought they are blue robins but their feathers are black.

Looks like ornamental onions. I have seen them 4-5 feet tall.
Ornamental Onion is a part of the Allium family, it’s close relatives include the familiar grocery store onion, garlic, shallot, chives, and leeks.
I have a clump of chive I grow just to let flower every year. A soft purple (lavendar) colour that adds to the vegetable garden.
