My babies have hatched! I'm not ashamed to say that I almost had tears of joy in my eyes as I saw these little heads popping out the house.
Here's a closer peek - isn't his face sweet?
And here's mama (or papa) coming to feed them. Nature is miraculous.

Hi Shelley, Hope you are having a nice summer. These are the sweetest pictures. I love the closeup of the baby's face! Harriet sends you and Scout a hug!
Very clear pix! Wonderful to see this new family!
Sweet hugs,

...that first photo melts my heart! They are so sweet!!
They sure are cute!
Ahhhhh...so cute! Congratulations on the new family.
Fantastic! Those little ones look hungry.
I felt the same Shelley, when little Blue Tits hatched out in my nest box.
Fascinating to watch them; lovely shot of the little wide open mouths :-)
Oh my gosh, Shelley! So cute! What a joy they will be to watch. Great photos! :)
How fun to have babies! Our Mountain Chickadees have left the bird house already. So many babies flying around the yard now. So fun!

I have very similar photos of my violet-green swallow babies from last year...they are a hoot to watch.
The house sparrows got this year's first batch of eggs (drat, and double drat). I am hoping for the best on this second try.
There is nothing quite as sweet as baby birds with their mouths wide open. Wonderful photos!
Wonderful photos! Looks like these little ones might soon be fledglings.
These are adorable!!! We THINK we've got one nest box that has hatched. And the one behind the bedroom, I'm beginning to think she is alone. I only see one bird ever at that box. And she's usually peaking her head out of the hole (I'm assuming it is a SHE!)
I'm waiting for just such a event in Michigan too in a nest box at my daughter's home.
Wow cool and well done... Tree swallow are so cute and ncie bird that I'm very happy for you!
Very beautiful pictures, i love their colors.I had one that posed a few weeks back for me.
They are so cute!
How is Scout? Having fun this summer I bet.
So very precious! Wonderful images! A most delightful post!
AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!
They are soooo cute!
I am going on vacation for 2 weeks! YAY! so I'll talk to you when I return.
Oh what sweet pictures. I really liked the first one with the mouths wide open. I would have tears too.
How cute, they are adorable baby swallows. Lucky you! Great photos.
Nature is indeed miraculous! Sweet, beautiful captures Shelley!
Won't be long before they are on the wing. Lovely shots Shelley.
So glad you captured these magic moments! Yes, it is miraculous and best of all it keeps repeating the miracles.
