Update on Pea Chicks

The pea chicks are growing nicely.  There are still four of them which is good...good in that they are obviously strong and mum is doing a great job at protecting them from the hawk that often flies overhead.

They have got into the habit of recognizing me when I go to feed them in the mornings, especially when I go back and give them the scraps from the aviaries.  They just love the little pieces of bread that the birds did not eat, each of them grabbing a piece and running off with it in their beak to eat in a jiffy before running back for another piece.
