Baby Bird

About two weeks ago, I asked Momma if we could look in the nest in the window by our front door.  We found three or four eggs!

A few days later there were two babies. The next time we checked all the babies had hatched and had fuzz on them.

We checked them again and they had wings that we could see and feathers.

Today we were helping do something for Daddy outside and we saw three things fly out of the nest.  We think they were Momma bird, Daddy bird and baby bird. The baby bird was learning how to fly! He did good.  We watched him for a little bit and then he watched his mom– or his dad–fly.

He flew with his mom and caught a branch.  He forgot to fly and was starting to fall and then he remembered he could fly! We are watching for the other ones to learn how to fly.

I will be sad when they all leave the nest because we won’t be able to watch them grow more. But I am going to be happy that the baby birds can play and then mate and then have more babies.  Hopefully they will build their nest so we can watch their families grow!
