It only took 10 days from hatching to fledging the nest. What a fun experience to watch the whole thing develop through our living room window from nest-buliding onwards. I told my kids that watching "Nestflix" was better than Netflix Lol. We're all now feeling a bit of empty-nest syndrome though as they became part of our landscape for these short times.... All three individuals pictured here fledged a couple of hours after this image was created.

Nice natural view of the clutch! Guess they have to grow into those beaks. Amazing how fast the grow. If human kids were so quick, I might consider having them!
