Oliver & Olivia – May 2010 Photos
Here are Oliver & Olivia’s exciting photos from May! Dad Ollie continued to bring nesting materials to the nest for the anticipated arrival of the chicks. By the second week of May, both parents are seen sitting and observing within the nest which is a sign that maybe a chick was hatching or had hatched. By mid-May, we have two chicks visible! And by the end of May, the photos show just how much they have grown in just those two weeks. Amazing!! A reminder, if you click on the thumbnail photos, they will open up to a larger photo to view. Enjoy!
