Beak to beak … a sweet moment between a Common Gallinule parent and its fledgling.

Super excited to have finally confirmed the location of our local Swainson's Hawks nest for this year! They moved a bit south of the area they have nested in for years.

So now I want to know, how many babies do you think they will have this year?

These little spoonbills are waiting for their parents to return, who are foraging elsewhere. It has been a dry spring here, so unfortunately there is no pond at the colony.

Babes in the woods. Twice during the past week @CTGT and I have enjoyed watching Downy Woodpecker parents return to their nest cavity in this tree scrag to feed their little ones. You can hear the nestlings chirping throughout this clip, as well as a quite vocal Baltimore Oriole.

The chicks are 21 days old. They are fledging. Normally fledge about 18 to 21 days after hatching. Nest building started 23 March. The first egg was laid 14 April. #bluetit #nestbox #chicks #babybirds
