I just spotted two sunbirds fiddling with the old nest. They have been at it quite a bit! Are we going to see another batch of chicks??

Are these the same pair? The babies? So excited 😍

The wee little sunbird chick returns to the nest for the night. Where you been all day, little bird?

Now that the sunbirds are grown up, they leave around 7am to go on their bird adventures all day and return around 6pm for bed time.

I had a good look at the nest today and was amused and quite impressed that it is made up of rafia string, twigs, dried leaves and...fur! What dog or cat contributed to this nest, I wonder?

I was thinking of walking to the nearest cafe to read blogs and journal but realize I have a perfectly good spot in my apartment to do that. If you have been following my #BalconyNest posts, the nest is at the upper right corner of the pic, hanging from the plant.
I ❤ my apartment

I was getting worried for baby sunbird because she just flew off and I didn't see her the whole day
And then around 6pm she returns with mum and dad and she's now chirping up a storm, probably telling them about her adventures.

There was another chick though

Wonder where it went.

Caught a video of the little sunbird chick flying from its nest to perch on my Brazilian Spinach. Happy to give you a little garden to test your wings, baby bird. Now be a nice #bird and poop on my spinach.

Today, to my surprise the sunbird chicks were not in the nest in the morning! Like there was nobody inside. The #birds are back now, with mum and dad occasionally visiting.

I guess its time for them to fly out of the nest. Aww they have grown so much. Look at how fat and floofy this chick is!

The Sunbird looks nice, fluffy and well-fed today. Not sure if this is the chick or mama, but she is gorgeous!

Fyi id you have not been following my #BalconyNest story, but a pair of sunbirds built a nest in my balcony, and there are now two chicks growing inside the nest.

The #birds have gotten really nice and big. They look about ready to fly out of the nest.

The chicks are literally growing into their colours now. Before, they were a downy black and grey, now you can see splashes of yellow. Aww its like watching babies growing up

It would appear that childish tantrums are universal, even in the #bird kingdom 😆
Mum decided to hop into the nest & 🐥 wasn't too happy about it.

But omg aren't they cuuuute together

The sunbird chicks are grown up! (There are two of them in the nest.) Before, I could not even see the 🐥, but now, you can see them sleeping in their little nest. One is clearly bigger than the other. Probably because it's better at getting food from mom and dad.

What names should I give them? :🤔 🐦

Mum and dad #sunbird is out all day these days to feed these young 'uns

Children can be so demanding, eh?

PS: Still cant believe this nest is right next to my living room and I have been at the very beginning watching the parents pick out the spot to build the nest until now, feeding their chicks! Follow the story #balconynest

Finally managed to capture the moment mama sunbird feeds her chicks. If you squint hard enough, you should be able to see a little mouth pop up inside the nest.

I can watch this little sunbird all day. Does this mean there are little chicks in it already?

Some days I just see it sitting in there staring at me as I watch TV 😆

How time flies! You can follow the story of how the sunbirds started to build a nest at my balcony by following #balconynest

Omg this is gosh darn cute! The sun #bird is just sitting in that little nest of hers, probably roosting over a wee egg.

I still remember the day they were inspecting the plant as a location for their nest!

The #sunbird is in the house!
Context - the birds have been building a nest at my balcony for weeks. They are now living in it.
