Another little update on the pump Chickies. I put them in this old nestbox I had so that they would not be super exposed to the elements and predators, and put that in a bucket that I mounted on the pump, so the parents would find them. This has worked out great (they are not scared around me, thankfully, and when I put them in the box I showed the parent the inside so they knew where the babies are, and miraculously this has worked), even though I am putting the box in the sunroom over night to keep them safe from the curious raccoon. I cannot change the location of the box because I don't want to risk the parents abandoning them, so this will have to do. Hopefully they are soon big enough to fledge. #birds
