Mocking Birds

Tuesday, May 2, 2023

For a few weeks now we’ve notice a nest in our lemon tree and we have seen a couple of Mockingbirds flying into and out of the tree. A week or two ago we heard what sounded like baby’s squeaking in the tree. We couldn’t see into the nest from the ground so I stood up on my new wall and moved away some branches and this is what I saw. 

We were thrilled to have babies in our back yard, but we were kicking ourselves for not checking out the nest sooner. We have now been checking the nest every day watching the baby’s progress. According to google, the eggs incubate for about 14 days and then after they hatch the babies can fly after another 14 days. 

We want to enjoy them now because it looks like they will be leaving us any day now.
