Baby Cardinals at Feeding time by Logan (6) and Brooke (8)

Kid’s submission. Photo of baby cardinals in nest found by Logan (age 6) in the bushes one morning. While bird watching at 6:00 a.m., he noticed a mother and father cardinal entering and leaving a nest repeatedly. When he peeked in the branches he saw these babies. The mother cardinal flew out at him, which was quite a surprise. Sister Brooke (8) helped monitor the nest, and watch the parents fly in and out for feedings. One day, when the babies were older one of them actually hopped out of the nest and startled her.
