Baby birdies


I noticed that these guys had arrived by the pile of droppings right by our garage door - I don't know how they got so big so fast! I think the mother bird is an eastern phoebe from the little I've seen her but these babies don't look like what I expected. I think she is the same bird we kicked out of the garage when she was sneaking into the cat door and building a nest on our tarp! They are awfully quiet - their mother must have taught them to be scared of big ugly people and little dogs.
