Full Nest
June 22nd, 2003
Mama bird is now almost constantly setting on her two chicks. When I come out to take a peek and a telephoto shot into her nest area, she stays put–except for the very occasional times when I hear more than the usual flutter of wings an no one is there. That’s when I got the second pic. Both chicks look fine so far. Papa bird comes in to land from time to time, and seems to be the one doing the feeding–he ducks down under mama bird before taking off again.
