Violet-Green Swallow Babies!!

These little babies didn't mess around, last night there was no *Pipping going on that I could see. All the eggs looked fully intact. This morning, we have babies!
 
 
 
Than moments later I was lucky enough to catch mom feeding.

 
What a wonderful adventure and I'm so excited to share it with you!
Check back often, I'm going to attempt to have something to share everyday so we can all watch the progress as these babies grow every day!
 
                                       *pip4
pip/
verb
gerund or present participle: pipping
  1. (of a young bird) crack (the shell of the egg) when hatching.

    Amazing! I'm so excited to see the babies' progress! I want one of these set ups at my house, but am afraid I would do nothing but watch it all day long so I'd probably lose my job LOL!
