Everybody is up. Baby 4, little Joker, is beautifully framed between his bigger siblings. You sure can see the difference in size. There's a little whoops and the end. In the beginning, you can catch a glimpse of all four. So they are still all there and doing well. Just trying to keep life simple. |

Thanks everyone for the encouragement. When I first thought I discovered four, I went running out of the house to find my husband. We thought, "Nah, couldn't be." We looked up the statistics and found out how incredibly rare it was. I kept spotting them over the next few days. I had to tell somebody. That's when I stumbled across David Hancock's site and gave him a call. The excitement escalated from there. We have a local biologist also documenting them. She gets beautiful photos from closer to the nest and posts them on her website. But she can't see inside the nest quite like I do from my vantage point. I am excited and enthralled every day. Just trying to keep life simple. |

By the way, it's not hot. That's cold air from the babies' breath. It will get to about 70 today possible. Nice and comfortable. Just trying to keep life simple. |

Thanks much for the "whoops" video, Sue. Too cute seeing Little Joker go "whoops"! |

The kids have picked at some of the leftovers in the nest. I see them picking at stuff and eating it. They're learning, but they still want fresh food. Mom and Dad came at the same time. They didn't bring anything. They just moved the leftovers around a bit and took off again. Just trying to keep life simple. |
