Two eggs hatch


I had checked the nest this morning and posted that there was no change. Now at 6:30PM I checked the nest and two tiny little birds are hatched. They are cute and ugly at the same time. Already when I pull the bush back to sneak the camera inside, they are opening their mouths for food. Hopefully the third egg will hatch soon.

Amazingly, the mother is very tolerant of me being around the bush this evening. I thought that once the babies had hatched, she might try to scare me off. I believe she remembers me from last year and knows that I will do no harm to the babies.

They almost look prehistoric or cartoon-like when they are babies.
