Baby birds
are adorable not just because of their mostly cute looks but also because of the noises they make and how they behave, especially after they fledged. I have heard baby Orioles yesterday, I heard and saw a glimpse of a baby Blue Jay but other than that, everybody seems to still be in the nest. Except for the Grackles. The parents often “park” them by the pond and go to find food. The babies are playing with things in and around the water, take baths and in between get fed. And some of the more brave ones join the parents at the feeder bowls. They already have the sincere look of the adults but with added cuteness.
