Two more eggs!!!  I’m so excited!  Will update pictures once the eggs hatch. (Here's a link to the two original babies! They're all grown up now, but still hang around.)  I really hope that I'm home when the momma teaches the babies how to fly.  That was sooooooo cute last time.  They were hopping up down and bouncing all over the place.  
 
(worthless side note, in some of the pictures you might notice some black fur.  That is fur from my old lady cat, Susie, who is 15 and I love her very much.  I found her on the hard streets one winter when she was very, very small.  She's never had kittens, but she is extremely motherly in many ways.  Ever since the first pair of baby birds showed up months ago, Susie has literally spent nearly every hour of the day and night up against the window and as close to the babies as possible.  She watches them non-stop.  So I've been brushing her and putting her fur outside.  The momma bird will walk over and get the fur, then take it back to the nest.  Susie has never been a real mother, but, at least, she's helping to take care of these sweet little ones.)

September 20, 2020.  Went outside this morning to check on the babies and the little one is dead. I'm completely fucked up right now...

September 29, 2020 (worthless side note, but right after I took this picture, Momma came home and fed the baby and as I'm posting this the baby is taking a nap...and my cat fell asleep while watching the baby bird sleep.  Haha.)...
October 4, 2020... (He's getting big.  Took this picture early in the morning.  He spent the entire day running around the balcony and even hopping up and down.  It was super cute.  I have a feeling that Momma is going to teach Junior how to fly pretty soon.)
