Baby birds

This was taken this past Wednesday...and the baby bluebirds are looking pretty well. I can hear them all the way up at the house (from INSIDE the house even) when the parents feed them! I'm a little worried because sparrows have started flocking around the nest box and harassing the parents...and sparrows are known for making life rough for bluebirds. So we'll see how it goes - I sure hope these little guys make it to adulthood!

I want to live next door to you so I can see them too :-)

We had magpies nesting in the front this year. One of the chicks fell (got pushed?) out of the nest a couple of weeks ago. The parents still fed it on the ground. They've al gone now to prosper elsewhere.
