Hurry up mom I am hungry!

The mousebird babies had their first solo flight up a tree only a few meters away. There mother had to feed them.

They were lucky chicks - ours got dislodged from the nest and all died! This mum is a good mum!

[Sylvia du Toit]

@maggiemae Sorry to hear. I watched these a few days. The bush with the nest is only a meter from my room. I was able to watch them very close. On Tuesday I saw them the first time out of the nest. They managed to get up branches near the nest and sat in the rain. Later the day I saw them up a tree few meters away. Thankful I saw them.
