Mommy Bird and babies
 

 "Family Portrait"

Getting bigger (and that nest is getting crowded).

 Almost ready to fledge?

Baby tries its wings

Huddling together: should we try it too?

"Don't leave!" (note wing in lower right corner)

And then there were three.

Baby makes it to the roof: first flight was a success!

 

We got up the next morning to find that all of the babies had flown and were sitting on the fence

You call tell the babies from the adults by their shorter, rounder bodies and the whitish yellow line across their faces (which is the lining of their beaks).

The slimmer one on the left is an adult that just landed beside them.
