Baby Birds


Not that this is amphibious, but it is amusing - one of the smaller trees at our house is hosting a bird nest.

The eggs and now the hatchlings have been keeping the kids super interested.

The amusing thing? These guys are sporting mop tops!

Now the amphibious part - while we are on an animal discussion, we caught a small turtle on Saturday. It was hanging out in the middle of the culdesac (most likely sunning itself, but to the kids, it had a deathwish - and no one wants to see a squashed turtle, no pretty).

We are giving it a temporary home in the backyard. Pictures to follow.
