Hatching!

The chicks have begun hatching! Fun to watch the wee ones being fed, tho we can't see them...we can see the adults taking small bits and leaning into the nest cup to offer it to the chicks. Males become very curious and attentive...staring into the nest up. Females are more restless, looking down a lot. It will be about ten days or so before we may be able to see their tiny heads reaching up for food during a feeding. Even after 20 years, it is still thrilling to me! Life goes on...watch carefully and you will see the signs.
