mockingbird nestlings

I have mockingbird nestlings. They were born 11-12 days ago. The first nestling jumped shipped this morning. They were all gone by the next day. Very tight quarters as they grow. The nest is in my topiary right next to my porch. The mockingbirds were use to us being around and really were no problem. This is the second generation born here on our property. A prior year we had a nest in our backyard next to the pool. The Mockers are pretty familiar with us.

3 are facing north (count the beaks), and one facing south kinda on top with his tail extending between beak 2 and 3.



One jumps ship shortly after.
