Thanks Ralph, I've been going every couple of days. In fact I'm going to head out there soon. It looks like they will be fledging and gone soon.

Great series, Ira. Interesting that different birds use the fecal sacks. I got some images of House Wrens carrying fecal sacks out of their nest in a hole in a tree as well.

Thanks Koos, yup, I took some shots, some years ago, of a White-eyed Verio with its chick, that was doing it. I didn't know what it was doing, but found out later.
