Babies at our house

They like to sleep squashed toegether on the swing




It is Show and Tell Friday at Cindy's:






Our finches had babies and we now have 4 from the first clutch They are doing well and learning to eat. We have another clutch coming along--not sure how many in that one and if they are multicolored or white.



They are fun to watch. Even our big male canary helps to feed the babies. I will be giving them away to good homes. We have had the finches about a year now ( 3 pair) and I have taken over 100 eggs out of the nest boxes. I forgot to check before Easter week and next thing we knew we saw little white bird heads in a nest box!



Does anyone local to me want a few?



Have a Pink day!

  1. Oh, I so wish I was local! Where are you anyway? My childhood pair of finches never had babies, she never even lay an egg. She did 'nest' though, poor girl. Thanks for sharing these beauties.
