This isn't a very good picture, but the barn swallows in the eaves of my house hatched. This is the mother hanging on to the outside feeding the babies. I think there are two. If you look at the left side of the nest, there is a yellow line, that is one of the babies beaks. They hang over the edge waiting to be fed.

Oh how neat. Hopefully you can get pictures of their various stages of development.

I am excited. I walked out the front door a little while ago to see a beautiful bird perched on the birdbath. Couldn't tell exactly what it was, but it was a hawk or falcon of some kind. Things got mighty quiet in my yard for awhile after that. One squirrel almost looked like he was frozen upside down in the Tulip Tree for about 10 minutes...and not another bird in sight. Funny how they know when there is a predator about. Mixed blessing though. Makes me worry about the baby bunny I've actually gotten to eat from my hand.

That's an excellent shot Becky! I see those birds around. I always try to take a picture but it's futile. They are always on the move! Must be great fun watching them up close. :)
