Our Mockingbird family right outside our window, the one I've been talking so much. They've basically become pets. Joshua and I spend so much time in our playroom. We have the perfect view of our pet family. My parents are here for the fourth. My mom and I are Andy Griffith Show fans, so we named our babies Winkin, Blinkin, and Nod after the Mockingbird episode (I think they were baby Mockingbirds in the show???). Winkin spread his wings today (we're gonna call him Winkin...you know I can't get close enough to know the difference). The mom and dad will charge at me. I'm glad. Like I've said before, they're aggressive for a very good reason. Predators are everywhere.
Winkin spread his wings and hopped onto a branch. Then made his way to the ground and hopped across the yard. I couldn't stand the thought of Princess hiding in the shrubs so I made my way outside and of course brought my camera. Once outside I say Mama and Daddy M. perched on the eve and power line with food in their mouths. Winkin made his way to the dwarf magnolia tree and I saw one of his parents bring him food on the ground. I love how their watching over him (or her???)
