This little Downy Woodpecker baby and its mom were flying back and forth from tree to tree yesterday. The baby would fly to one tree and the mom would come and feed it and then they would both fly to another tree. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
But they always came back to that first tree where she fed it. It was just precious to watch! Have you seen any baby chicks yet? The baby looks bigger than the adult, don’t you think?
Interesting behavior -even though Mom still feeds him, he has to practice his flying.
