Feeding the babies

The babies have arrived!  The wren couple, whose nest building I posted about in June,  are proud parents of some very noisy and hungry babies.  I have watched and listened over the last several days as the wren parents have brought food to the nest.  I got my camera out and took a few pictures.

Yes, that's a baby's mouth you see!
But I really wanted the sound effects, too, so I got out the video camera.

The wren parents have been constantly flying to and from the nest, searching for and delivering insects and other wren food to the babes.  I couldn't help but think of those days when I was a nursing mother with a baby dependent on me for nourishment.  What a life of luxury that was, sitting in my comfortable chair, cuddling my baby!
