Nature's Wonder Right Outside My Back Door

So, they're not really my pets, but I've been having fun watching this miracle of nature happen before my eyes. The babies are so cute. I'm going to miss them when they leave.

This series of pictures takes you from when the mother was sitting on her eggs until one of her babies first day of flight. (at least that I knew of) The little guy in the bottom picture was just resting on my driveway, not a care in the world til I tried to pick him up and move him. He wandered into my neighbor's yard and into my neighbor's window well. Hours later, the little guy was back in his nest safe and sound with his mom and sibling. Amazing!
