Say Ahhh...

As I mentioned earlier, we have more Eastern Bluebirds raising their young in the same bird house as before. I guess they found a ready made nest so laid the eggs in it. We are pretty sure these are not the same parents as before as we can see subtle differences in them. We have no idea how many babies have hatched this time around but there are a few in there. We hear them singing and see little beaks peaking out from time to time when one of the parents arrives with food. I sat outside for awhile the other day and caught another snapshot of a little mouth ready to accept a juicy worm. This one is not as good as the one I took before but it is still thrilling to see. I hope we will be privy to see these little ones take their first flight like we did the others.
