Our Apartment Patio Junco



This summer a pair of Juncos build their nest in one of our potted plants. And one fine afternoon we were lucky to watch the young bird fly out of the nest.

Ready for the flight

Plenty of food needed for this first flight

Food to entice the young one to fly

Parenting

Inside - outside

Yes, we feed at every step

We are doing good kid.

Grown up time, you are own your own.

Good! Meal times again.

Treats

Will fly for food.

I know I look silly.

Where should my feet go?

Moms are the greatest gift to the world

Whew! Are we clumsy? Oh yeah!

A long way to go yet

Flight to freedom
