Wordless Wednesday...Sibling Help

Wordless Wednesday...Sibling Help.

 

Yesterday was a big day for our baby bluebirds. They hatched May 7 (we think) and on Tuesday, May 25, they fledged (flew the coop.)

 

There will be more to come on this later but while Larry and I (mostly Larry) sat out undercover while thunderstorms moved through, we saw this precious act of sibling love. 

 

 

The juvenile on the top of the fence (who fledged April 8) kept an eye on the newly fledged baby bluebird. 

 

Mom and dad had their hands (claws) full keeping track of the other fledglings and feeding them with freshly caught worms. 



Families are the compass that guides us. They are the inspiration to reach great heights and our comfort when we occasionally falter.    Brad Henry

Nice, that is a pretty cool photo. I hope they all grow up to sing for the rest of us.

Kathy it does not matter if it is animal or human, it is amazing how similarly parent are protective of their young.

That picture reminds me of my sister and I.  She was 12 years older than I, and looked after me like a hawk.

Grant Schneider Larry and I  enjoy being able to help them. I wish we could do more. 

Wayne Martin Thank you. I wish we could tag them so we'd know where they went after leaving.

Brian England I agree...family should be there for each other. 

Bill Salvatore - YVP Blog I don't know where the nest is, but we've seen baby woodpeckers at our feeder too.

Kat Palmiotti Thank you!!!  I had to use the "real" camera for this one and wanted to get closer but didn't want to scare them. 

Ron and Alexandra Seigel Thank you!!!  I think in another life I would love to have studied animal behavior.

Joan Cox they must be so much fun to watch. I've seen them in the woods near the house but not in our back yard. 

Jeffrey DiMuria 321.223.6253 Waves Realty they have a soft sound but my favorite songbird would have to be the state bird of Texas.. the mockingbird.

Morning Kathy.

We have four trees in our little piece of the world.  All of them have nests with eggs in them.  We check them weekly to see the progress of the little ones.
