All is well. Amy and I were concerned considering the last encounter she had with the birds, but for the past week or so now, things have been progressing smoothly with the proud parents producing three chicks. So far the routine goes something like this. Mama bird (or is it papa bird?) flies out and perches on the apple tree. He sets to twittering right away. We don't know if it's to tell the babies to "Stay down! Shut up!" or to warn others away. Then both parents disappear in search of food. A few minutes later, breakfast is served. This basically goes on all day.
The babies look to be getting pretty big already. I believe they'll be looking to test their mettle in another week or so. We'll keep you posted.
