twins times two!
June 22, 2012
In a post a few weeks ago I mentioned that a bird of unknown species had assembled a nest on my porch light fixture…the mystery is solved: four wee Mockingbirds emerged earlier this week!
trio – one’s tucked on the other side:

They are so, so cute.
they’re so big now, I’m going to post some new pics, can’t believe how quickly they grew!
Quadruplets! How wonderful! And how lucky you are.
I thought so, too…first I saw two, then another, and then the last little guy
They are so cute! I have never seen baby mockingbirds before. How fun to watch them grow!
Me either, Karen…I’m enjoying the view, will be sad to see them go but thrilled when they make it that far!
Thanks for the update – they are just so darn cute!
aren’t they? I got back from another out-of-town jaunt today and they’ve grown so much! they’ll be flying away soon
Mockingbirds–they’re in a song by someone …..Hi. Great bird captures. Thanks for the update on the nesting.
I was pretty thrilled to learn which birds had built it, now I can’t wait to see them grow, soon as I get back, I’ll check on em again
thanks, Eva, you’re right, more than one song by now
Very cute … and central heating too!
I look at the nest in amazement, two birds flew back and forth in a matter of days building this sturdy nest and now their home is full! always appreciate your visits and comments, Geoffrey

I love it! What a gift! The one to the left in the first photo’s name is Rosey…she has my smile! Hahahaha!
kewt Rosemary! hadn’t thought about naming them, but I should
Awe!
thanks, Angel…totally agree!
Precious!!!!
I agree! lil darlings are priceless, too!
They’re beautiful!
there’s something so pure about these, I know they’ll inspire many pieces, I agree, beautiful!
So cute!!!!!!
cheek-pinching cute, Erin!
Awwww… that’s amazing! little feathery babies. love it.
giant aweeeee, I’m so thrilled that they’re thriving!
Their Mama chose a good porch to nest her babies in. It’s a win-win situation – Mama doesn’t need to worry about the safety of her wee ones, while you get to watch, and wonder, and write about what you see – just outside your ‘window’ – can’t wait to hear it!!
She did, Claire! I’m trying not to disturb them, but they’re just so gosh-darn cute!
I’m just a guy with a limerick reply…
Your light is a place for a birds nest,
A spot where the chicks really do rest;
Their eyes are still closed,
I love how they’re posed,
It looks like their mother did her best.
