There have been so many fledglings around lately. It's been a blast to watch them. Here are a couple who hung out on the top of the fence quite a bit, waiting for mom to feed them. I also saw one take a very enthusiastic, if awkward bath which was quite adorable (I wish I had a pic of that). I am not good with bird IDs, but Mom looks like she might be a Black Phoebe. Supposedly the babies are black and white and have a bit of brown on their feathers. Does anyone know?
