We found out we had a new set of chicks in the nest in our front yard 6 days ago, so of course I had to get to work. I plan to get shots from my roof at least once a week, and will be updating this thread so you all can watch them grow with us. Here are some shots from the first two days after we found them. The last shot is Dad.

Yesterday I was able to witness family meal time! Dad had a snake for a tasty meal (I know this because I saw him fly away from the nest with it before returning with all of what you can see on his face).

Thanks everyone. Here's one from the roof a little while ago. They were VERY content just laying down in the nest, so it took about 15 minutes to get any shots.

We have named the babies Biff and Marty. Biff is the bigger of the two is much more outgoing. Standing up tall and stretching fairly often. Here's a little conversation I imagine happening between them in.:lol:

Biff: "I am the captain now!"

Dad: "The hell you are!"
