Not quite a week since they hatched, and our baby bird friends are getting much cuter. Some wing feathers are growing and their eyes are open much wider... in fact, they can definitely recognize now that I am not mommy or daddy. This one just stared at me the whole time I was out there and flinched a bit every time the camera clicked. No more beaks wide open for food from me!
Here is mom and/or dad. They're quite good parents, as far as I can tell. I know they're both around, because I've seen them both at the same time, but usually I see just one or the other flying into the nest. If you look closely, you may be able to see that in the second picture he/she is carrying some food home to babies. Still hard to believe that those babies are going to look like this someday soon! They're awfully gray and fluffy for now (not to mention those beady eyes!)
