Bird in Chapel Hill Next Day

We continued to spy on the new born bird in our house. The next day, 29th June 2008, after it was born for 8 days, we found that it moved to a spot about one feet away from the nest. It had grown some since the day before. We are sure that it will start learning how to fly within a few days. If you think about it, human can not even fly even 8 years after birth.

It was hiding behind the leaves and we had to use flash to take pictures. This time, we found that the new born bird was able to reflect with the flash. Its eyes were functioning and that was great. Again, it was not scare of our presence at all.
