Another baby....chickadee!

(Blogger is having video trouble. These may or may not appear on your screen right now.)

In the first one baby never gets its food and a Hairy woodpecker comes and scares them away . If I was a baby chickadee, a Hairy Woodpecker would scare me, too!

In this second video the mother Chickadee is feeding the baby. Suddenly she takes off somewhere. Motherhood is stressful!

NW Nature Nut: Thanks! I've been catching up in yours also...love your trip.

Birdlady: They are cute even when they are as big as mom :-)

Saphotographs: thanks....I hate loading videos, but this baby flitted from branch to branch like it was hyperactive and I couldn't keep up with it!

The videos never loaded for me, Mary. All I see is a blank space.

Mary said...

I believe the videos are back.

Wonderful videos - so glad i can finally see them!

What do you take your videos with?

Mary said...

Annie: I take videos with my digital camera. It isn't a fancy camera...a Fujifilm FinePix S5200. I'm strictly a "point-and-shoot" photographer and need a simple camera that is smarter than I am :-)
