It's fascinating to see the parents eat the shell as the baby bird breaks free.

I wondered where the shell went! Never knew they did that.

The video of the little bird hatching is terrific and the soundtrack that you chose was perfect.  It gave me a good chuckle.  Thanks for sharing!!   :sunny:

About mama bird eating the egg shells....

All birds need calcium for egg-laying AND for stong bones.

Calcium is also needed for the central nervous system.

Waste not, want not.   :)

I showed everyone at the office the video of the first one being born.. they all thought it was reallllly cool.

Now I can see all four, all nice and hungry.  Their poor heads are too big for their bodies!  THe first one looks like he/she was struggling just to get its head up to cry!

Thanks for sharing this wonderful occasion with all of us!  :2thumbsup:

KEWL, Stitches... 

I was thinking Larry, Moe and Curley... but that didn't quite fit the situation! 

 :2thumbsup:  Karma to You, Stitches!!   :2thumbsup:

Actually, there was a fourth stooge, but I can't remember his name right now....

But, I'll bet someone from the Trivia Section will tell me!!!    ;D
