Babies

The first Red-throated Loon nest hatched either today or yesterday. They are nothing more than a bunch of fuzz.
Red-throated Loon just a day or two out of the egg.
The Long-tailed Jaeger that hatched two weeks ago is getting quite large, and quite ugly compared to the loons.
Careful, they bite!
Flight feathers growing in. In another couple weeks we may see him flying around!
Tomorrow and the next couple weeks involve data entry sprinkled with a bit of vegetation sorting. It is mindless work, but important. Weather has been cloudy and windy for what seems like forever (probably a week). I'm praying for a sunny, warm day so I can go see what is flying.
