THE BABIES

Here they are in all their glory! We can't believe how much they are growing each day. Their beaks seem to get longer every hour! Mom is hardly ever there anymore and the babies probably aren't too far off of leaving the nest. We are afraid to get too close as we don't want to startle the babies and cause them to jump or fall out of the nest. I'm guessing that they will certainly be gone by next weekend. It's really been fun for us to watch the whole process of Mother Nature at work. Both my husband and I must each look at the nest half a dozen times each day. Think how much more time I will have for mundane chores like cleaning the house once I'm not spending my time bird watching! Hope you enjoyed your weedend!
