On June 4th I went out and took these pictures and again, one is out of the nest. I think this nest is just too small.
On Sat. June 7th. Just four days later. I go out to see the babies and take pictures....
and there is NO ONE LEFT!!!
There are only two babies on the branches of their tree. Mom and Dad and another adult are singing and yelling. They are moving the babies. One is already in place, in my neighbors garden, where they will be shaded in the tender leaves and stems of the crop. They will have easy branch climbing in there for a few days.
As I took these pictures ALL ADULT MOCKINGBIRDS in the area were after me......... I was yelled at, flown into and almost landed on...... YES, I was afraid....Felt like I was in the movie the birds. LOL

After about an hour, They are called out of the tree and on their way to the garden, one at a time with SPARROWS keeping an eye out. I had noticed the sparrows stayed with the babies or near by the whole time. Now that they are moved the sparrows are over there as well. I guess they are the baby sitters.
