Rob,
-- I took pictures of my on the edge of a fledge brood today! Under our second story deck which is under the bedroom. Hoping they will move their 4AM morning song a bit later once the chicks are out!

Summer is not right until the Phoebe's build their nest under some convenient camp overhang. Usually it's under the porch. This year it's on a support for a small roof protecting the back door.Four eggs, became four chicks. The parents nicely coordinated a steady stream of feeding visits with "screen door slams" of frequent arrivals and departures. Grandaughters delight in being lifted to nest height to see and count the fast growing chicks, which instructions not to touch the poop laden roof support.The overstuffed chicks are now overflowing the nest, and we can imagine them saying to each other, classic juvenile complaints , " Stoppit..stop shoving", or "Mama, she touched me" or "Mama, he BREATHED on me". Soon they will fledge and be seen teetering on small branches along the waterfront, begging incessantly for their next bite from tireless parents.Another summer at camp.Photo - Chicks https://www.flickr.com/photos/64147480@N02/ 14460114726/ Rob SpeirsCumberland
