ttaylor, any idea what kind of nestlings you have there? They look almost like bluebirds, but they are cavity dwellers so wouldn't have built a nest in your gutter. Baby bluejays, maybe? Neat!

We have a family of titmice (three juveniles, two adults) coming to our feeders and nearby trees lately, and it's lots of fun to watch and listen to them. Boy, can those babies make a racket!

I don't know what kind of birds they are. I don't think they are blue jays or bluebirds as I saw the mom and she was not blue

They weren't in the gutter (its a log cabin so we don't have any gutters), the nest was in the log that supports the upper most pitch of the roof (does that make sense)? It was a really weird looking nest, at first I though it could be a rat nest EWWWW.

The baby hummingbirds are sooo cute. By the picture it is hard to tell how small they are. We have hummingbirds around our house and they just look so small when they come buzzing by. They are so quick you never really get a good look at them. Thanks for sharing the picture so we can finally see them up close for once!!!
