That’s what the baby finches look like. They are hilariously, adorably unattractive – all eyes and beaks, not a lot of strength or coordination – and they make interesting sounds. Not cute little cheeping sounds like baby chicks, but more of a soft, hoarse burring sound. They sleep a lot, but they get active, in their floppy, wobbly way, when the mama feeds them. We are almost exclusively going in and out through the garage so as not to disturb them, but I do check on them via the bathroom window several times a day. Usually they’re asleep, but I can see them breathing. Just like when I watched my babies sleep, and I always checked to make sure they were breathing. I do have a pretty good picture that I’ll add later. And here it is!
On another note, the senior tour starts Friday AM with my MIL coming for a visit, til Sunday or Monday. Then it continues with my dad coming on Monday and staying til Wednesday. And then he comes back over the 4th of July. And then, as Kevin says, we will want a vacation :)
