The eggs hatched!! *PICS*

Post by Diabolique »

I am an auntie now! :lol: Woohooooo!

Ok...a quick recap!

May 9th...


Image



And....Yesterday afternoon. They moved a lot...so they are all doing well! Momma bird is already getting used to seeing me around, because tonight I was able to sit on my front porch bench and she stayed cuddled with them instead of flying away to the tree. :vibes: If you look closely, you can see one little beak there.

A little messy, but cute. I had a Mama bird set up shop in our porch light (she got in through a broken pane of glass and Dad was too lazy to put a new light bulb back in.) :lol:

I've got a pretty territorial bird that's hanging around the cars and windows...fighting with his own reflection. Bad thing is, he's pooping all over everything. :irked:

I would say cute, but all I see is a pile of fuzzy somethings. LOL That's cool that you could get photos like that!

That's why I said in the other thread that I prefer to see baby birds after they've been around for a week or two. They look less like strange, slightly fuzzy somethings at that point and more like CFTs. :p

I try not to disturb them too much. So far Momma bird and babies are doing well! :)

I think she's a finch! :)

Now...here's one taken yesterday! When I first checked on them, I noticed that one was awake. So I went to grab the camera, but by the time I returned, he was already asleep again. :lol: You can already see a bit more and they are actually starting to get a few feathers! :vibes:
