I am so excited!
Thank you,

thanks. all 4 eggs are hatched as of today. the last baby was born this morning. I wish I could get a good look but the parents are being good about keeping the babies out of my sight.
Thank you,
Tina

my mistake, only 3 hatched, 1 was infertile egg. but the babies are a week old today and they are starting to get pin feathers and their eyes are opened!
Thank you,
Tina

Congrats tina!!

I have 5 baby black cheeks as we speak too! Mine are 10 days old. They hatched while I was on vacation. The lady who was looking after them is so delighted to have gotten to see baby birds born. She comes over regularly to see how far they've grown. hee hee
