Well, yesterday, when I went to take pictures, one of the babies flew out of the nest. I had to carefully chase it down and put it back in the nest. This is a picture of the three birds that stayed in the nest:
This is a picture of the birds after I got the wandering one back in. It is covered with webbing, etc.:
My son went into the tarp shed this morning and one of the babies flew out of the nest again and went to where we could not rescue it. I got a picture of the three remaining birds:
Later, when my son went in, they were all gone. I guess it was time for them to leave the nest and fly on their own. I am no expert, but they did not seem ready to me. Hopefully, they are out there and doing well.
I know it seems silly, but I will miss them.

Perhaps the birds will come back to visit you.
Perhaps! I believe I have seen the mama around. :-)
