Yesterday was their last day of nesting, now the little ones are out in the world. Good luck to them.
Update: second breed now hatched out.
Pic later.

I think it's four of them this time (difficult to tell in this pile), but I don't want to outstay my welcome just to arrive at a definitve count
For those keeping up: it's actually five little blackbirds, but number five is always hidden from view, nest is tightly packed.
In the last pic from a couple days ago they are neatly organized in a circle, and you can identify all five.

Feeding of the five feathered is happening at a normal rate. Meaning fast. Parent birds are flying in and out at two minute intervals right now while I enjoy my coffee watching the proceedings.
