	6/13/01: "You again?"
	The nest is packed pretty full at this point
	"I am SO bored."
	The feathers are getting more and more real
	6/14/01: Five birds with feather boas
	I think the film on the rightmost bird's eye is a nictating membrane
	6/15/01: There are four in the nest....
	... and one out. (He doesn't seem too happy about it, either.)
	A view from underneath the deck
	Big Brother standing tall
	Upset parent, yelling at me under the deck. (At least this way I don't get thwacked.)
	6/16/01: Count the five beaks
	Then, things got exciting. One of the chicks jumped out of the nest and made a run (not a fly) for it. I tried to find it in the underbrush, with some extremely angry parents keeping me company.
	I finally found it in some woods a hundred yards and a plummit or two off. I put it back in the nest, only to have it jump off again. It finally stayed, and I left them alone for a while.
	An hour later I checked, and found only two or three left (I decided not to enquire too closely).
	6/17/01: One of the last chicks. Soon after I took this, he jumped. I chased him down and put him back in the nest. Soon he jumped again.
	This time I got him and put him in a nearby tree, figuring he'd be out of harm's way and wouldn't be looking to change his venue again.
	There was one shy-looking kid left in the nest. After some thought, I remembered that the afternoon was supposed to pour buckets of rain. So, I got the chick back from the tree and put it with its sibling.
	6/18/01: One chick left, looking fairly non-chalant.
	The feather boa is becoming more defined.
	The flight feathers are almost full-grown.
	6/19/01: The nest is empty, and the parents are nowhere to be seen. 20 days from hatching to leaving.

That's all.
