Blue Tits Hatch-ed/-ing!!!!

In NB-3 the eggs are hatching!!!!

This morning when I came in...(5 minutes ago ca. 7:30), I saw the first hatching (so tiny!!) and I noticed that a second egg was cracked!

I am so exicted!!!!

Mom Blue Tit left the nest once since I arrived to get a mini-worm to feed to the first hatchling. She had to call to it a couple of times before it opened it beak to be fed.

The temperatures are really low (about 6°C) and thus Mom Blue Tit continues brooding the unhatched eggs and warms up the 1st hatchling (which would otherwise die).

I will post as the others hatch!
