A new season and a hatchling or two or three...

Happened to be stopping by at the right time I guess

This is the second photo essay of a series of photos that I have taken over the last few months.

On May 10, 8:46 a.m. I spotted this nest and the bird flew off

Leaving an empty nest I thought so I looked inside

At 8:59 a.m. I took a closer look and this what I found

There is something happening here

And it is starting to come in pretty clear on May 14th at 12:15 p.m.

Oh yes but are there 3 or 4 hatchlings in there?

And again on May 18th at 4:07 p.m.

And on May 20th at 9:37 a.m. Mom makes another appearance in the nest.

And a few days later the nest is empty and everyone is gone fishing sort of speak.

On May 22, while visiting with Penny McConnel she showed us this nest, and the first thing I thought of was oh no not again.
