Well, I am thinking they will go tomorrow (Sunday). They sure seem ready. I have not seen so much peeking before fledge day. It has to be due to the type of nest box they are crammed into. One (I think it's the same one) had its head stuck out of the opening almost all day today. I had a short trip planned but I think I will postpone it.

Step dad continues to do most of the work. Here are some pictures. The first shows how he looked after a hard rainstorm we had this afternoon. He stayed right out in it, looking for insects to feed to the nestlings. Then, the ones after that were an hour or so later, after he had dried out.
