Birds Are Gone! :-(

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.

Our baby birds are growing. They are much cuter now!

Baby Birds Hatched!

We cannot see inside the nest really well, but we do know that the baby birds hatched! I managed to get some pictures. I do feel a need to warn that they do NOT look all cute and cuddly. They have very few of what look like feathers. Their eyes are not open and they look like big black spots.

So, if you are easily triggered by that kind of thing...don't look. I will put them a little farther down the page.

Here they are:
