They do grow so fast! I hope they fledge soon and give Mrs Junco a chance for one more nest this season. I thought I saw some mating behaviour going on, the male seemed to have erected his head feathers a little bit, and was cheeping away at his lady with his tail raised. I wonder if they'll reuse this nest, or build a third?
Haha, that's not the age when any baby birds look their best - pink skin, spiky pinfeathers, Einstein ear-tuffs... Poor momma junco is going to be exhausted, raising two cowbirds! And darn, we still don't know what's up with the blue egg...
