We have teeny weenie finches in the nest. They are Bengalese finches ( also known as Society finches). I suspect the oldest is about a week or so old. What a lovely surprise. I guess they finally decided to take this thing seriously...many dud or ignored eggs.
They may be tiny but I can hear their hungry little cries from the next room. Mom, and the two Dads -modern family :o)- are doing a good job so far with the feeding.
The Gouldians are curious and interested. They stand on top of the nest but can't get too close as there is a parent in the nest at all times. I tried to get pics but would have to be too intrusive so I'll wait and try again when they are a little further along...so exciting!
