Barn swallow chicks almost ready to leave the nest. Mom and Dad are busy trying to distract anyone who looks up there.

Note: this is just nine days since they looked tiny:

What if little people grew up that quickly? They look totally different from the shot of them from just over a week ago.

Wow - they really did grow a TON in that short period of time, didn't they?? The one time I shot little ones of these guys, "mom" kept trying to swoop me outta there. I didn't stay long as she was rather persistent!

That certainly is a huge development over that time.
