Something you don't see often... a wood pewee feeding her chicks!

[squirl033]

The wood pewee nest I've been watching now has babies, and I was able to get some shots of mom feeding the little ones... shots you don't see every day! Will be watching this nest, as I did with the Bullock's orioles, until the chicks fledge in 10-12 days. Meanwhile, here are a couple of the first ones. The nest is about 30 yards away, and flycatchers are small birds, so these are severely cropped, which robs a good bit of sharpness, but I'm happy just to be able to get photos of this!!
