The babies flew da coop today.  I think I'm suffering from empty nest syndrome.[img style="CURSOR: pointer" onclick=url(this.src); src="vny!://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/smilie/traurig/a010.gif" border=0]

     BUT !!!!....A successful flight for the whole family......thank goodness.  (I didn't want the beast to have free delivery appies).

Yup....they fly already.  Mr. Sawdust saw them on his way back from the shop yesterday.  He said they flew straight and well. (pheww!)  We were going to rig something up to catch any failed flight attempts from the beast....but apparently they don't need it.

I think pictures are doubtful at this point.  They move very fast and sudden.....but I'm going to try today. I wonder how long they will come back to the nest now that they have flown.

I'm thinking so Michel......must be getting a little crowded in that teeny tiny nest.

  Several years back, 'THE BIG TREE' had a large branch that came down across the kitchen window......and there was a humming bird nest on it.  I was so excited to have a front row seat at this event.  I watched for weeks waiting and waiting to see a baby humming bird......but never did.  They were there.....but they were so selective of their flight times, that we never saw a thing.

It was amazing how tiny their nest was.  Makes the one we have there now look like a condominium.

There were 4 eggs....each one smaller than my baby-fingernail.  THAT would have been something to see.  It was such an odd place for a nest, as the branch was long and had a lot of motion in the slightest breeze.  Mysterious little creatures.

  Hopefully I will catch a pic today.

No sign of the birdies.  I think they have permanently vacated.  (much faster than I expected)
