Well, I got excited with the new nest Monday but I went to check on it today and it's empty. The nest is still in pristine condition so I don't know what happened. Most critters that would have taken the eggs would have destroyed the nest. Regardless, the 2010 season comes to an end with 19 fledged babies. Not bad!










That is a lot of new babies! I love to see your birds each year...

Oh, too bad no more late-season nest watching, but it was great while it lasted!

Not quite, I posted a photo just for you today. Keith found a nest right outside our door with two babies In it.. He said he watched the mom feed them earlier but when I got home they were just dittoing there with their mouths open waiting for more.

19 fledglings sounds pretty good! Good job!
