My babies are about to fledge, I am sad to see them go. They are still at the stage where they are hanging out of the holes, seem to want to fly but are afraid. Moms and Dads are still feeding them, hope they hang on a few more days, I really don't want them to leave. I attached a few pictures of them, I will let you know when there is Lift-Off. I always worry about the lake, it is only about ten feet from the gourds and house. Is it true that the grown ups will guide them upward, it seemed so last year, they are certainly circling a lot. Hope all goes well.

Beautiful, Jayne! We're about 150 miles northwest of you and just had our first 3 fledge on Sunday. They won't be around much longer but they're such a pleasure while they're around.

Take care,
