first fledge coming soon...
Hard to believe this thrasher hatched just 12 days ago. Will be ready to leave the nest in less than a week. He (or she) is significantly bigger than the 2-day younger sibling because of getting feeding preference. 68,75,63,0,B
It pays to be first.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for that big bully to leave the nest! Are we sure he's not a cuckoo?
ReplyDeleteThe first hatchling is not a bully. The parents favor the first one when feeding them.
