Weeks ago I had a bad experience when I found a nest with new born baby birds on the ground under a tree in my front yard, I thought I had killed them with my watering. After appologizing and crying while puting them in a box (using a spoon) I noticed they all were moving... I had thought at least one had died. So I decided to put them back in the tree and see what would happen. Thankfully the parents came back
Here is one on the nest
the next ones I took a few hours after I put them back in the tree.
next is 2 days later
and a couple of days after that.
I couldnt get any better or later pics while they were in the nest, as the babies got older the parents became more protective and started dive bombing me when I got too close for their comfort, and that comfort zone kept expanding every day
and when they left the nest
I was startled by this one when I took the trash out. I learned just how protective the parents are. As I was taking pics the baby went to the street and as a car came, it got too close for the dad(?) and he attacked the truck the way he would me when I got too close.
This guy got stuck in our window sill... the parents knew so I just left him there.
I also had many opportunities to take pics of the momma and poppa birds too

Those pictures are so cool!! I have never seen such neat close-ups of baby birds before. I'm glad everything turned out well.
