Babies are growing fast

These three little Blue Jays are growing fast. We have been monitoring their progress from the parents building their nest on April 23,2009. The first egg came on April 25,2009 and they hatched on May 16,2009 tiny, pink and naked. As you can see in the picture it didn't take long before they where screaming for food.
Today they have their eyes open and most of their feathers are in place. They have started to move around in the nest more and look forward to their next meal. I have some interesting video that I will share with you after they have fledged.
