We've got a feral cat in the neighborhood that's been eying the nest.


Have you had any success capturing and relocating this cat?

The neighborhood feral cat is still on the loose.

I notice the baby birds are on their own for the first time.
Mom must be out on the town ;)

One of the parents was just tending to the little ones and cleaning up the nest.

Looks like there's a parent back "cleaning" the nest. How disgusting that they eat the droppings.  :P

Maybe the parents don't actually consume the waste. It's possible that they remove it from the nest using their beaks and mouth.

Yeah, it's probably hard to hold chunks of poo with their claws.
