A Fledgling Barn Swallow (Random Pointless Photo)

Fledgling
(Click on image to enlarge)

With some baby fuzz still sticking out among its adult feathers, one of the barn swallows has left the nest.

When I tried to crack open the window to get a better picture, it flew away like an old pro.

Its less adventurous siblings are still in the nest, or on the nest, since they scarcely fit in the nest anymore.

We spent a Saturday morning on the back deck with our coffee watching our juncos slave away trying to feed three baby birds. When they weren't feeding them, they were sitting with them in the nest--don't know how they all fit!
