The Babies Have Flown the Coupe

After work I went to photograph the babies and it seems that they were in the process of flying the coupe. The runt was the only one left. When it saw me it hopped out of the net and into the lime tree. Once I realized what was going on I left them alone .... So no new pictures.

When I drove down the driveway upon returning from work, the father cardinal was hoping across trying to catch a grass hopper. Just about when the bird snapped up the bug it would hop off. The cardinal would leap after it ... I think the bug escaped behind the shed. At that point the female followed. They were both hunting for their young.
