July 22...big update

When we went out on July 22, we saw lots of activity.  Only two chicks were visible, but boy where they easy to see!

July 14---how they have grown

The next chance we had was on July 14.  Early afternoon we went out for another quick visit.

Mom flew high cover and dad brought lunch...

And the kids showed their wings..they are so ready to fly!

June 21 was home rebuilding day

When we went back the day after seeing the triplets, we did not see the triplets, but boy we saw some great nest building activities.

June 23--trying to get an update

On the morning of June 23, I went out to try and get better picture of the three chicks.  Unfortunately, the mom is very protective, and as soon as we get anywhere near close enough for a reasonable shot, she is telling the chicks to stay hidden and we get no good views.

But we saw a bold red-wing blackbird pestering the mom.

And dad fed the kids...

All we ever saw was the parents and one kid at a time.
