As reported yesterday, my early week cache of BirdCam photographs had several jewels, including some of juveniles (or feeding behaviors) I haven't seen before. Last week I observed a begging behavior by a Pine Warbler youngster (something I never before witnessed) and lo and behold, I caught a photo of the same fledgling on Monday. Oddly, the birds are on the wrong feeder (that platform stocks safflower seed!) so perhaps a parent is just taking a break and Junior Warbler hopped over in hopes of a handout of suet. It's very exciting to see so many parent birds bring (intentionally or not) their fledglings to the feeder stations this spring, including species like this we hadn't seen do so before.
