Baby Bird's first flight
Today, 1 May 2012 at 9:00 AM, in the morning I was in my garden, watching the same routine of female and male birds feeding their baby birds. When the parents were away for food, suddenly one of the little baby came out of the nest and started flying, my eyes opened wide with shock, it was so stunning for me, as the little baby bird takes its first leap into the big wide world!!! And then the second one also came out and started flying. Both the baby birds fledged on the ground but seems they are still dependent upon parental care and feeding. ....
As I said parents were away for food that time. And when they returned and found that they are not in the nest so they started calling up them, and here they are!! Finally they found the baby birds. But the parent did not feed him. He let him see the moth, and then, with a loud call, off he flew to the next tree. When the little bird saw the food going away, he forgot he was afraid, and with a cry of horror he sprang after it; and so, before he knew it, he had flown. Baby birds followed their parents, and finally they disappeared from my eyes.
Now the nest is empty. No bird chirping out there. I am missing them. But I am delighted that I have seen most part of the life journey of a humming bird.
