All Grown Up Now


This is the last picture I took of the Thrasher babies in the nest, the next morning the nest was empty. I did check around the nest for signs of predation and found nothing so I have to assume (and hope) that they flew the nest. I did notice a pair of adults coming to the feeders during the day and flying back to the same hackberry bush so I suspect that they were still feeding the fledglings.

You're probably right! We also have a pair of very active adults. They're flying back and forth over the house, presumably to a nest across the street. Nice job of locating the nest!

It was fun watching their development and boy did those parents work hard raising them Kelly.
