Baby Phoebes

Last year, a Phoebe built a nest on our backporch.  Here is a picture of that hatch in the nest. 
This year, she built the nest on top of the porch roof, right up against the house under the eaves. 
(on the brand new metal roof with her mud and moss construction, I might add......)  These are 2 of this years youngsters - I know this because of the yellowish bellies, which indicates a juvenile Phoebe.
