On March 28, our finch pair, Fenton and Creamy, after taking turns sitting on 6 little white “jelly bean” eggs, hatched out a couple of baby birds. The other four followed in the next two days. We’ve been trying to get pictures of them, but it’s such a jumble of feathers in their little dark basket nest that we haven’t really gotten a good shot.
But today, after finally getting big enough, some of the babies have left the nest and began to hop around the cage.
Can you believe there are five more like this in that little basket nest?
