We were in the right place at the right time to see two of the babies launch themselves successfully from the nest today. Now there are just two left, and they are enjoying the extra space...
I had hoped to snap a picture of the fledgelings with my camera as they sat on the porch steps before taking flight, but I couldn't find a way to get close enough without scaring them. Maybe I'll have better luck with the next pair. And if that doesn't work out, I noticed that a Barn Swallow is now building a nest in another area of the porch. We just may have to spy on her, too!
