Wrens Fledge




Just a few days again so comfortable and dependent. Now they are out of the next and are having a hard time figuring out how to get out from under the deck. They have tried out all the furniture, been in all the plants, in all the windows, climbed the walls and on the shelves. Mom and Dad were trying so hard to get them out in the open, one went right away. I don't know how long it took the other two, I stopped watching.

Baby Bluebird Saved


We saved a baby that fell from a nest on Memorial Day in May and now she is thriving. We have some great pics from 2 days old and up.

Here is her eating the meal worms from the dish hanger.

Find the Wren's Nest



The wrens have built a nest in the flower arrangement before but I had never gotten any pictures of them here. The babies are hard to see. They are tucked way in the back against the house. The adult wren is very quick at getting in to the babies with a bug and then off to get another.

Baby and Momma Red-bellied Woodpecker

Mom would get some shelled sunflower seeds from the feeder and take them to this tree to feed the baby. There were two babies day before yesterday and yesterday, but I only see the one today.

He/she is not old enough to dye his hair red yet! : )

Great Baby Pix


These are my newest babies, House Wrens. They can hardly wait to be fed, it looks like they are going to come right out of the house to get their bugs.

Brown-Headed Nuthatch


Hi

Like the chickadee, the Nuthatch takes one piece of food and off to eat.  I have a pair of Nuthatches that visit quite  regularly.

Bringing Home the Groceries


I had to take this shot fast - too fast to focus - but I had to get this big, juicy, green worm!  Those babies must have loved that one!
