Daily Growing
The mockingbabies are about 5 days old now, and while we wouldn't say they're all that much cuter, they're definitely bigger! As of this morning, their eyes are open and they have begun making faint "cheeping" noises in response to sounds. They are also beginning to develop pin feathers on their wings. Still, they're mostly beak and fuzz, and they spend their days eating and sleeping... just like most babies. Here's a picture of the mockingparents - they take turns on food duty and watch duty pretty much all day long.

ReplyDeleteYou've gotten great shots! Enjoy watching the wonder!
ReplyDeleteThis is so much fun, watching these babies grow through your photos and videos. Really sweet. My favorite photo of the babies is the third one down, of the one sleeping. He looks like he is smiling, even though it's because he's not grown into his beak yet. They are all fantastic shots.
