I couldn’t pick just one favorite, so here are several shots i took yesterday when the parents came to feed their babies:

Beatrice & the Babies 2

Papa & Babies

Papa & Babies 3

Papa & Babies 4

They finally got cute. :) They’re about 2/3 the size of the adults already. When the parents are away they get up and hop just outside of the nest and flap their wings. If they see us coming, though, they pack themselves into the nest and become quiet and still. They’re so big that usually one is stuck directly underneath another one so that they can all fit in the nest.
