Hatchlings!

I think there's two of them, and I think they're both cowbirds... 

Well, they've hatched.  See the rejected egg still over on the righthand side?  And the whitish egg is also unhatched.  When I Google "junco hatchling" most of the pics I see have dark coloured down.

  1. Ooh! I'd guess cowbirds too - certainly they don't look like juncos I've seen. But how exciting that they aren't just eggs anymore! I don't suppose the unmarked egg wants to hatch too, to satisfy my burning curiosity...

  2. Thanks for your expert opinion! Mrs Junco is a foster parent now :)

    1. Haha! Not a *willing* foster parent, but yes... Any more updates?

    2. Still just the two, getting uglier every day :) I'll post a pic.
