    2. How many babies do you think?
      What's happened to the skunks?
      Didn't they raid the bird feeders?

      Delete
    3. I'm not sure how many! And I, thankfully, haven't seen the skunks in a couple of weeks! They couldn't get up the trees into the feeders, but ate what was dropped to the ground. I still fill the feeders every day for the birdies!

  7. It is fun to watch the adults put up with the sqwaking as the youngsters demand food even when they are out of the next. Great photos.

    1. yes, he was just as big as she was but still did that squawking and wing fluttering. She looked tired...and she was molting, which added to her disheveled look. ha.

  8. Very sweet pics of Chapter Two! Guess what? I had a male cardinal flirt with me yesterday in my friend's garden. He came so close to me and sat in the bush chirping away. I could almost touch him. She was using my phone so I could not get a photo - plus he might have flown away if I moved. But I thought of you!

  13. These are really sweet. It makes me think of our bluebirds where we used to live. (Where I live now, there's too many birds to keep track of them).
