Not my babies... bird babies. A few days ago I went to get the mail and a bird flew out of the mailbox. Poor nervous mama bird was sitting on the 4 eggs she laid in our mailbox! We left a note for the mailman with a substitute mail box and check on the progress of our eggs.
Yesterday, the eggs were little pink blobs. If you can see in the picture here, they have beaks and big black eyes.
I don't like to disturb them much since I feel sorry for the mama bird. I know how it feels to be worried about your babies. But, we'll keep checking to watch them grow and eventually fly away. Poor mama bird...
These things are so much more fun with a preschooler in the house.
