Feed Me!

They are growing fast, we read up on them yesterday and found out they are only going to be in the nest for around 12 days. Seems impossible that these scrawny, naked things will be leaving the nest or "fledging" that soon!

There were 4 eggs, three hatched. Here are all three:

I don't know if one is weaker than the others, but you can usually only see two. They are piled on top of him/her and he doesn't raise up as much as the other two. Mom got some really good pics of the three of them with their beaks open yesterday. We need to set HER up with a blog to show them off, since the whole family is doing it now. ;)

Fascinating to watch. :)
