The kids are huge! They barely fit in the nest.
The estimated fledge date is 2/8 - 2/18. I will be surprised if they stay in the nest another two weeks.

Wow! I have not looked in about a week. They sure have gotten big! Every once in a while you see one of their long tongues dart out or they practice furiously beating their wings.

The "fledge watch" officially begins today. The kids are preening like crazy. Getting ready for the big event, I suppose.

they're big!
I haven't check in on the little buggers for a week, and MY! how they've grown! They're huge, if one considers a hummingbird huge.

we (my co-worker and I) saw one of them buzzing his/her wings like crazy a couple of days ago.
After they fledge, do they come back to the nest, or is that it??
