Cactus Wren Fledgeling
Been watching a Cactus Wren nest for the past couple of weeks with @ptdphotos. Up until Saturday, we thought there was just one chick as we had seen only one beek begging for food at the nest "doorway".
Yesterday though two came out of the collapsed nest ready to face the world. The were about 3/4 the size of the parents but with shorter tails.
Within about 20 minutes of them exiting the nest they flew with the parents. Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Cactus Wren for allowing me to see young ones for the first time.
