Media notes
left to give them their space almost immediately after they ran into some cover but figured since i popped out of the pines just a few feet from the nest i’d grab a pic
Observation details
wasn’t expecting to find babies today! 3 out of 4 eggs had hatched and mom was still sitting on the fourth when i almost stumbled right on top of her. the fledglings had to have been only a day or two old, absolutely tiny and about as underdeveloped as precocial fledglings get. i spotted her early enough to reroute myself around her before flushing her off the nest so not sure how many eggs she was sitting on
