It& #39;s cold today...
Well good morning.
Yesterday was their last day of nesting, now the little ones are out in the world. Good luck to them.

Here they are.
I think it& #39;s four of them this time (difficult to tell in this pile), but I don& #39;t want to outstay my welcome just to arrive at a definitve count https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😅" title="Smiling face with open mouth and cold sweat" aria-label="Emoji: Smiling face with open mouth and cold sweat">

For those keeping up: it& #39;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.
