We have kids sprawled out all over the nestbox - one in the far inside corner, two along the north edge of the box in the outside and our usual right under the outside box cam ... hard to choose a camera angle since you can only see one or two from each view ...

Three of the kids are out front at the box edge sitting in the sun/shade, Ivy is inside the box getting out of the sun ... Ivy is the only adult who does this ...

What a racket ...the gentle feedings of a week ago are done.  Now the poor parent is ripping the meet to feed the screaming kids as fast as it can.

Anyone else catch the 11:10am feeding?  I loved all the brunch conversations and then laughed myself silly watching the trolling for leftovers!  So funny. . . . . .

WOW!

I've been away for a few days so was stunned to notice the following changes today:
-  Today is the first time I noticed the start of black flight feathers on the wing tips & tails
-  Today is the first time I noticed how the vocal cords are getting stronger as the chicks grow; could not believe the RACKET during feeding time!
-  Could it be they doubled in size over the last 3 days?  Probably not but sure seems like it!!!

We are back to nap time with twitches that wakes everyone up for a couple of minutes then nap comas resume ...

Everyone naps, then twitches awake, occasionally one does a bit of preening, then the urge to nap wins again ...  :D

Interesting to see their shadows moving around on the inside of the nestbox wall, where the sun is still shining, while they were all outside. :)

And a very interesting nap, to boot!
