Well, I got back from camping today only to find that the parents of the baby robin apparently sucked at finding food for them cause they had barely grown at all and then this evening, Chris found that they were dead. Their parents had been returning to the nest sporadically throughout the day, trying to feed them but it's a bit hard when your children are dead. Not sure why they died - perhaps the ground was too hard and the parents couldn't find enough food? Or maybe the parents were just not smart enough to feed their children every 30 minutes? Who knows. It's really sad but I guess that's nature for you.
