Update On The Neighbors

Last night one of the birds fell (again) from the nest and was left too weak to survive. The two had grown so much that the nest was barely big enough for one, and while the fall is perhaps two feet to soft planting soil, this may well have been the same one who took a tumble a few days back.

It's sad, but then animals tend to reproduce like dust bowl farmers: have enough children that some are certain to make it. Requiescat in pace.
