Bye, Bye Birdies

And just like that, they were gone!!

So just in case you blinked your eyes and missed a post,
let's recap the details!!


On April 22th the hubs and I discovered this.
I shared this picture last week for World Bird Wednesday.


 On April 25th, we were able to see one baby.
This was my update on Thursday for Nancy's Blog Hop.


 On April 28th, while mum was off looking for food,
I was able to get a quick shot of both babies.
I saved this photograph to share today with World Bird Wednesday.
I never dreamed it would be my last image.
When I checked the nest today, they were gone.


Please stop by and view all the amazing birds from around the world.
