Summer Youngsters

Our backyard has been a bird nursery this summer!  

The bluebirds are back and have successfully raised seven babies so far, with four eggs in the nest right now.  I was able to capture a nice progression on the last brood of five.

Five babies that looks like shrimp.


Hungry babies!


 Feathers emerging.


 One of the fledged back for a visit.





We also had baby finches for the first time!


Finally, this young mockingbird has been lingering around squawking at my dog.
