These birds were in a nest outside the window at work in Vermont. Are they robins or some other bird?

They could be, not sure now. . . starlings or robins.
Was it in a cavity? Starlings should nest in a cavity, but if they're like HOSP, they'll nest some what out in the open.

The nest was not in a cavity. It was on the top board of a building. Don't they look like Darth Vader babies?
