I was able to set up my video camera on a tripod today and caught a few minutes of “Daddy’s Feeding Time”……
It looks like there are only three baby birds. There were originally 5 eggs, so I am not sure if two didn’t make it or if they are just not strong enough yet to hold their heads up.
BABY BIRDS!!!!!
We had one baby bird this morning, and when I chased Mama off of her nest this afternoon, there were TWO. I love the little open mouths!!!!!!
Eggy, Eggy, Eggy
And now there are three……
It is so much fun to look thru the sheer curtain on the window and see her little head and beak sticking out of the nest!!!!
Bird’s Nest Update
And then there were TWO……..
A fun welcome home…..
We arrived home from Kunming, China on Wednesday morning (3:30am to be exact)!!!! We had a good trip, but made a decision NOT to make a move there, so we returned a week early.
On Wednesday morning I looked thru the sheer curtain on my front door and saw two little birds busily working around my door wreath. I walked outside and found two flowers on the front porch and this nest……
It has happened before, but I normally pull out the bits and dont let the birds get this far along. I couldn’t stand to make them start over again, so instead I installed a note on the front porch…….
…..and another one on the inside of the door to stop us from opening it!!!
Then this afternoon, my husband announced that there was an egg…..
I hope that the birds will be able to make this a wonderful home for their hatchling, but we will see how it goes.
