Baby Birdies came out to play!

Yay, the baby birdies at my mum and dad's came out for the first time today. I missed the first 3 but managed to get there in time for the 4th to come out. First pic is mum calling baby out of the nest. Second pic is mum trying to coax baby out. Third pic is baby looking right at me. Fourth pic is baby in a bush after it was brave enough to fly for the first time. The pictures do not show just how teeny tiny the baby birds are, when I left my mum and dad's there were at least 2 or more babies still in the nest. We looked online and found that the babies will stay with their parents for 2 weeks after they first leave the nest then all the birds will leave and not come back :-( I hope to be able to see them a couple more times before then and try and get some more pictures.

Oh, how exciting!  What species are they?!  :tw_love:

The speed at which birds grow just absolutely astounds me.

They are Blue Tit's @SpoonfulOSugar, the parents started building the nest in the bird box in April so it is very fast growth!

Thanks @Tikobaby, I'm so pleased I was able to be there and get some pictures of them, I only go to my parent's twice a week so thought there would be no chance of seeing them. I sat in the garden for 2hrs just watching the bird box and taking as many pictures as possible, think I ended up with 15 or so pics and only 2 or 3 were dud's!

I do a lot of backyard bird photography and I know it can be tricky to get those good shots. Takes time and patience. Am so glad you got some!  Love seeing different birds and I've never seen your birds in real life.  Hope you're able to get a few more shots before they've grown up and left the nest.   :bird::bird::bird:

      I have serious doubts that Artemis has a qualifying disability.

      Artemis is pretty close mouthed about their diagnoses.  She says that is it no one's business.  It is true that legally under HIPAA, their diagnosis is private but if they want people to donate money to them, it might be in their advantage to share it.

      Gabe is also divorced so maybe he feels like they have a lot in common. It’s weird that Jill Rod seemed to get James as her up line after her divorce. She probably never liked Shoshanna and is glad to have James as her up line. Even if he wants his kids in Satan’s school. 

      Jill said something snippy to Shoshanna about the divorce, before it was facebook public knowledge, so not sure when the upline split was determined but after that comment I’m sure Shoshanna wanted nothing to do with her.  It could also have been, Jill was upset Shoshanna didn’t want her and decided to post.  Jills really good at being the Satan who attacks others.

      So far the Bowers have married off 2 sons. Marriage #1 apparently isn't acknowledged by the bride's family. Marriage #2 resulted in a truncated honeymoon.

      Looking forward to future Bowers boys marriage drama!😃

      Why doesn't the wife's family of the first son acknowledge the marriage?

      James still seems to have a relationship with Gabe & Shalom, judging from their social media accounts. Have to wonder how the NGJ heir, Nathan, feels about his wackadoodle younger sister.
