Bird of the Week Challenge: 27th November - Baby boomers

Its my first challenge back at BIBY!

Lets see some beautiful baby birds this time round. My little baby is almost 1 already and not so little anymore!

This was the first brood that used this old plant pot. Unfortunately the first chicks were so noisy they attracted the attention of the local Kookaburras.I couldn't interfere knowing Woko would be reading this.  All the chicks were devoured.

 The same parents have since nested here again and the good news is that all three chicks have grown to be able to fly away. Happy days!

Happy days indeed, Reflex. The Kookaburras got their tucker & the parents got their chicks. An ecological system in full swing.

What a lovely set of babies. I offer a family of Long-tailed Finches (mum or dad with 2 babies) from a rest stop west of Heartbreak Hotel in NT

I have been observing this pair of nesting kites for a while, finally the chick is getting curious about the world.

Not sure if this is even a baby, as it has been for a swim, but cute anyway.
