BABIES!!!!!!!!

We have babies!!!!

Sweet little naked Carolina wren babies!!!

Seems like only a few days ago she had only a nest in my backpack on the porch table without even eggs yet, but yesterday when I looked in - there were babies! Still so tiny as to not have perpetually open mouths, as to be silent, as to have no down, let alone feathers! Wow!!

They're soooo precious! Mom and Dad are both hauling in little bugs to feed the chilluns. Dad is braver and hops on up with his offerings, but Mom is more cautious and MUCH more vocal as she approaches and then leaves (kinda) and then comes back, fussing the whole way....several times back and forth before finally getting there with the grub. Whew! (just knew those babies had to be hungry!)

Sorry the pic is so blurry....I was having to hold the camera over the bag where I could not see....dark except for the flash...wow
WOW!!!!!!
