One of my Babies by lauriehiggins

One of my Babies

This little guy was born in one of my birdhouses. He sat on the deck railing for quite a while today, fluttering his wings like a hummingbird and crying. Another young bird that I believe is his sister kept going to the feeder and bringing him food. It was the funniest thing, but hard to capture.

Thank you so much to all of my friends on 365 who send such wonderful thoughts and wishes last night. You are such fabulous people and I'm so glad you are part of my life.
What a great shot!I You can totally tell he is crying in this shot! I love how his wings look. Great capture!

I have three bird houses hanging in my tree. Birds will not go near them. I'm envious of you with your filled bird houses. How cool is that?

You must be pleased that the birds trust you to be in the birdhouses! A wonderful bird shot!

Yes I can imagine him shouting to be fed. and it's a very beautiful bird. do you know what kind he is? we've two birdhouses..one is a little more fancy to look at , which is just a wooden box with a hole hanging on a post..that one is occupied the other is not.. the young ones oh btw they were sparrows just left the nest. last year we had a chance of seeing the mother bird coaxing the babies to come out..saw them in flight and then down on the ground. took oodles of pictures.

Is he a chickadee? I like how he is calling and moving his wings -- sort of "Hey!"
